+2022.08-rc1, to be released
+
+	Fixes all over the tree and new features.
+
+	Architecture
+
+	- Support for NDS32 removed
+	- Support for C-SKY removed
+	- Support for configurable page size on ARM64 added
+	- Architecture menu re-organized: the MMU selection now
+	  appears in this architecture menu.
+
+	Toolchain:
+
+	- GCC 12.x support added, GCC 11.x is now the default
+	  compiler, and support for building a GCC 9.x toolchain has
+	  been removed.
+	- glibc bumped to 2.35-134-gb6aade18a7e5719c942aa2da6cf3157aca993fa4
+	- uclibc bumped to 1.0.42
+	- BR2_GCC_ENABLE_LTO option removed, the toolchain is now
+	  always built with LTO support. The new option BR2_ENABLE_LTO
+	  enables the use of LTO in a subset of packages that have
+	  explicit handling for LTO.
+	- GDB enabled on OpenRISC.
+	- Toolchain menu now appears before "Build options". The
+	  selection of the C library now determines whether static
+	  library (BR2_STATIC_LIBS) will be available or not, instead
+	  of the other way around.
+
+	Filesystem:
+
+	- genimage.cfg files now use shortcuts from genimage for the
+	  GUID of well-known GPT partitions.
+
+	Bootloaders:
+
+	- U-Boot can now be built with host-gnutls as a dependency,
+	  needed for some configurations
+	- OP-TEE can now be built with host-python-pillow as a
+	  dependency, needed for some configurations.
+	- OP-TEE source can now be retrieved from a custom tarball
+	  URL.
+	- Grub has been bumped to 2.06.
