     1.  [Gotthard2] Tolerance in time parameters.

-    1.  [Jungfrau] Stopping in trigger mode and then switching to auto timing mode 
+    2.  [Jungfrau] Stopping in trigger mode and then switching to auto timing mode 
         blocks data streaming from detector. Workaround fix made in 
         detector server to reset core until next firmware release.
 
+    3.  [Jungfrau][CTB][Moench][Gotthard][Gotthard2][Mythen3] Firmware Programming
+        Firmware programming incorporates more validations such as checksum of 
+        program. Always ensure client and server are of same release before 
+        programming firmware.
 
+    4.  [Eiger] Stop sends last frame
+        Stop acquisition will now also send out all complete frames in fifo.
+
+    5.  [Eiger] Bottom not rotated in quad mode. Fixed.
+
+    6.  [Mythen3] counter mask effect on vthreshold
+        Setting counter mask changes vth daac values (ie. disabling sets to 2800),
+        vthreshold only changes for enabled counters, setting vth overwrites
+        dac even if counter disabled and when counters enabled, remembers set 
+        values.
+    
+    7.  [Eiger] fast quad fix for loading trimbits
+    
+    Receiver
+    --------
+
+    1.  Disabled port or deactivated (half) modules will not create files.
