fp@194: 
fp@1739: * Release 1.3:
fp@1739:   - Remove ecrt_master_run(). Make master FSM run in process context instead.
fp@1739:   - Separate slave objects from configurations. Make bus dynamic in OPERATION
fp@1739:     mode.
fp@1739:   - New sysfs structure with slaves, configurations and links.
fp@1739:   - Remove addressing scheme "X:Y".
fp@1739:   - Tool to set aliases.
fp@1739:   - Remove ugly ec_slave_is_coupler() and ec_slave_has_subbus().
fp@1739:   - Add statistics object.
fp@1739:   - SDO dictionary and -access in operation mode.
fp@1739:   - SDO write access in sysfs.
fp@1739:   - Speed up IDLE-FSM through fast mode with schedule().
fp@194: 
fp@1739: * Future features:
fp@1739:   - e100 driver.
fp@1739:   - Distributed clocks.
fp@1739:   - Read dynamic PDO mapping from SDO dictionary (see can-cia.org: cia301ds4).
fp@1739:   - Redundancy with 2 network adapters.
fp@1739:   - Interface for alternative PDO mapping.
fp@1739: 
fp@1739: * Smaller changes:
fp@1739:   - Simplify FSMs with <state>_enter() functions.
fp@1739:   - Rename "sysconfig" file to "sysconfig/ethercat".
fp@1739:   - Dynamic creation of EoE handlers.
fp@1739:   - Output intermediate results during lsec.
fp@1739:   - State change FSM: Follow spontaneous state changes.
fp@1739: 
fp@1739: * Less important changes:
fp@1739:   - Implement all EtherCAT datagram types.
fp@1739:   - File access over EtherCAT (FoE).
fp@1739:   - Allow VLAN tagging.
fp@1739:   - Determine number of frames the NIC can handle.
