v2015.01.0

Fri Jan 9 08:29:51 PST 2015

Hi All,

We have the first release in 2015, a bit delayed by some critical bugs.

The biggest visible change this time is the introduction of non volatile
variables. For every global variable now a non volatile variable can be
created which can be just changed on the commandline and made persistent
with 'saveenv'. This makes it possible to change the behaviour of
barebox without changing scripts.

For a detailed list of what happened since the last release see below.
