| Apache Mynewt continues to stabilize with each release, and we believe this |
| release is a further step forward. People who are interested in playing |
| around, and trying Newt, are encouraged to download and begin evaluating it. |

| Future versions will add: |
| |
| * More robust package management and versioning |
| * Newt package type "transient" |
| * Support for specifying C++ compiler flags |
| * Improvements for info, size, sync and upgrade commands |
| * Support for encrypted images |
| * Support for multiple concurrent debug sessions with two boards |
| |
| If working on next-generation build and source package management systems |
| sounds exciting to you, get in touch, by sending a mail to the Apache Mynewt |
| Developer's list, dev@mynewt.apache.org. |
