@@ -31,5 +31,87 @@ Upstream changes that have led to incompatible Liminix changes are:
 * newer U-Boot version
 * util-linux can now be built (previously depended on systemd)
 
+2024-01-30
 
+New port! Thanks to Arnout Engelen <arnout@bzzt.net>, Liminix
+now runs on the TP-Link Archer AX23.
+
+2024-02-12
+
+* We now build wifi drivers (mac80211) from the same kernel source as
+the running kernel, instead of using drivers from the linux-backports
+project.  This may be a regression on some devices that depend on
+OpenWrt patches for wireless functionality: if you have a device that
+used to work and now doesn't, refer to OpenWrt
+package/kernel/mac80211/patches/ to see if there's something in there
+that needs to be applied.
+
+* in general, we build kernel modules (e.g. for nftables) at the same
+time as the kernel itself instead of expecting to be able to build
+them afterwards as though they were "out of tree". Refer to commit
+b9c0d93670275e69df24902b05bf4aa4f0fcbe96 for a fuller explanation
+of how this simplifies things.
+
+2024-02-13
+
+So that we can be more consistent about services that would like their
+state to be preserved across boots (assuming a writable filesystem)
+these changes have been made
+
+* /run/service-state has been moved to /run/services/outputs
+ to better reflect what it's used for
+* /run/services/state is either a symlink to /persist/services/state
+ (if there's a writeable fs on /persist) or a directory (if there
+ isn't)
+
+The change will lose your ssh host key(s) unless you copy them from
+the old location to the new one before rebooting into the new system
+
+   mkdir -m 02751 -p /run/services/state/dropbear
+   cp /persist/secrets/dropbear/* /run/services/state/dropbear
+
+The `output`, `mkoutputs` functions defined by ${serviceFns}
+have been updated for the new location.
+
+2024-02-16
+
+New (or at least, previously unreported) port! Liminix now runs on the
+Turris Omnia and has been serving my family's internet needs for most
+of this week.  Thanks to NGI0 Entrust and the NLnet Foundation for
+sponsoring this development (and funding the hardware)
+
+2024-02-21
+
+New port! Thanks to Raito Bezarius, Liminix now runs on the Zyxel NWA50AX,
+an MT7621 (MIPS EL) dual radio WiFi AP.
+
+2024-04-29
+
+The setup for using `levitate` has changed: now it accepts an entire
+config fragment, not just a list of services.  Hopefully this makes it
+a bit more useful :-)
+
+  defaultProfile.packages = with pkgs; [
+    ... 
+    (levitate.override {
+      config  = {
+        services = {
+          inherit (config.services) dhcpc sshd watchdog;
+        };
+        defaultProfile.packages = [ mtdutils ];
+        users.root.openssh.authorizedKeys.keys = secrets.root.keys;
+      };
+    })
+  ];
+
+2024-07-16
+
+* structured parameters are available for the pppoe service
+
+* The "wan" configuration in modules/profiles/gateway.nix has changed:
+instead of passing options that are used to create a pppoe interface,
+callers should create a (pppoe or other) interface and pass that as
+the value of profile.gateway.wan. For the pppoe case this is now only
+very slightly more verbose, and it allows using the gateway profile
+with other kinds of upstream.
