-## EPICS Release 7.0.7
-
-### Doxygen Annotations
-
-Thanks to several attendees at the 2022 EPICS Codeathon the number of header
-files with Doxygen annotations in the EPICS Core has again increased.
-
-### Build System updates
-
-The top-level make targets `uninstall`, `archuninstall` and similar no
-longer trigger the `clean` target which empties build directories, this
-was a bug introduced in 7.0.5.
-
-The `make distclean` target now properly deletes the generated file(s)
-`modules/RELEASE.<host>.local` which are essential to build the external
-submodules under the `modules` directory, and should not crash if the
-build is configured with `INSTALL_LOCATION` pointing to an empty external directory (i.e. if you run `make distclean` twice in succession). When
-`INSTALL_LOCATION` is set in the files `configure/CONFIG_SITE` or
-`configure/CONFIG_SITE.local` the `modules/RELEASE.<host>.local` file
-will now be regenerated in case the install path has been modified.
-
-Note that passing `INSTALL_LOCATION=<path>` on the make command-line will
-only work if you have run `make distclean` immediately beforehand, as the
-`modules/RELEASE.<host>.local` file must be recreated using the new path.
-
-### Enhancements to `capr.pl`
-
-The `capr.pl` script can now display records from older Base versions to
-which fields have since been added, and shows long strings and array data
-up to 10 elements, use the new `-n` option to increase that number.
-The script is fully event-driven and prints all the field data received by
-the end of the CA wait time (`-w` option which defaults to 2 seconds).
-The interest level can now be specified using the `-l` option before the
-PV name, and the new `-D` flag outputs debugging information.
-
-### Time Synchronization on VxWorks
-
-VxWorks 6.9 can do its own OS clock time synchronization, if it has been
-configured by setting `SNTPC_PRIMARY_IPV4_ADDR`. Since EPICS 3.15.3 the
-IOC time support code has checked for the existence of the VxWorks time
-synchronization task and avoided starting the EPICS one if the OS task
-exists and the OS clock gives a "recent" time (i.e. after when EPICS was
-compiled), unless the environment variable `EPICS_TS_FORCE_NTPTIME` is
-also set. However a logic error in that code required the environment
-variable to be set in more cases than it should have.
-
-This error has been fixed and the IOC should work normally if the VxWorks
-task is configured and running. The `TIMEZONE` value for the year is also
-now calculated at initialization in this configuration, previously it was
-only done when the IOC synchronzation task was used. Setting the above
-environment variable will now cause the IOC support code to shut down the
-VxWorks synchronization thread (if running) before starting the EPICS one.
-
-Running the iocsh command `ClockTime_Report` now shows whether the VxWorks
-task is running as well as giving the state of the IOC synchronization task.
-The `ClockTime_Init` command can also be used to stop or restart the IOC
-time synchronization task while the IOC is running, depending on the `0` or
-`1` parameter passed to it. This last change also applies to RTEMS IOCs.
-
-### Incompatible change to `struct db_field_log`
-
-This change may cause channel filters which manipulate array updates
-to fail to compile.
-
-To avoid potential speculation issues arising from overlapping code pointers
-with data values, `union dbfl_ref` is modified to remove the `dtor` member.
-`dtor` is moved out into the enclosing `struct db_field_log`.
-
-So eg. using a `db_field_log* p`, the expression `p->u.r.dtor` must be
-changed to `(p)->dtor`.
-
-### Fix undef ts on first camonitor update of NORD from waveformRecord
-
-The order over operations when processing a waveformRecord is adjusted
-so that updates to NORD is posted with the correct timestamp.
-
-### Automatic COMMANDLINE_LIBRARY w/ newer compilers
-
-When built with a compiler supporting `__has_include<>`, the presence
-of the `<readline/readline.h>` will be used to automatically determine
-a default value for `COMMANDLINE_LIBRARY`.
-
-Mingw builds with readline support now link `-ltermcap` instead of `-lcurses`.
-
-This should not effect sites which set explicitly set `COMMANDLINE_LIBRARY`
-as the only definition in Base now has the form `COMMANDLINE_LIBRARY ?= ...`.
-
-### Perl CA support for empty long strings
-
-The Perl CA bindings have been fixed to handle zero-length long string data
-properly.
-
-### `aao` gains `OMSL` and `DOL`
-
-The `aao` record types gains the same `DOL` functionality found
-in other output record types (`ao`, `longout`, etc.)
-
-### Server exports `RSRV_SERVER_PORT`
-
-During `iocInit()`, the environment variable `RSRV_SERVER_PORT` is set
-with the TCP port number selected.
-
-### `dbdExpand.pl` sorts all items by name
-
-DBD files generated by the `dbdExpand.pl` script are now sorted within each
-item type by the primary name of the item. The result should resolve any
-issues with reproducable builds. No option is provided to prevent the sorting,
-previously the order was essentially random and varied each time.
-
-### `dbExpand.pl` sorts records by name
-
-Records are now output by this program in order, sorted by name. The new flag
-`-s` can be given to output the records in the same order they were read in,
-instead of sorting them.
-
-Note that there are currently no build rules provided with Base which make use
-of this program.
-
-### Simulation Mode RAW Support for Output Record Types
-
-SIMM=RAW support has been added for the relevant output record types
-(ao, bo, mbbo, mbboDirect).
-RAW simulation mode will have those records do the appropriate conversion
-and write RVAL to the location pointed to by SIOL.
-
-### Fixed leak from a non-EPICS thread
-
-On some targets, if a thread not created by `epicsThreadCreate*()` directly
-or indirectly calls an `epicsThread*()` function, a specific tracking struct
-is allocated.
-
-Prior to this release, on POSIX and WIN32 targets, this
-struct would not be `free()`d, resulting in a memory leak.
-
-This release fixed the leak on POSIX targets.
-
-See the associated github [issue 241](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/issues/241)
-for WIN32 status.
-
-### Fix `CHECK_RELEASE = WARN`
-
-This now works again, it was broken in 2019 (7.0.3.1) by an errant commit.
-
-### Document `DISP` as design-time field
-
-The DISP field can be set to a non-zero value to prevent records being changed
-from outside the IOC (this is ancient behavior), but has never been documented
-as being usable at design-time (DCT=Yes in the Record Reference tables). This
-has now been changed.
-
-### Make `epicsInt8` signed on all architectures
-
-The `epicsInt8` and thus `DBF_CHAR` types have always been unsigned on
-architectures where `char` is unsigned, for example on many PowerPC CPU
-architectures. This was counter-intuitive, and resulted in IOC behavior
-differing between architectures when converting `DBF_CHAR` values into a
-signed integer or floating point type.
-
-**WARNING**: This fix may change behavior of existing databases on target
-architectures with unsigned `char` (mainly PowerPC) when using input links to
-read from `CHAR` arrays. Architectures with signed `char` (usually x86) should
-be unaffected, although some compilers might generate new warnings.
-
-### Allow hexadecimal and octal numbers in hardware links
-
-[GH:213](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/pull/213)
-
-Several types of hardware links (`VME_IO`, `CAMAC_IO`, etc) now accept
-hexadecimal and octal numbers. (Hexadecimal numbers had already been valid
-up to EPICS R3.15.) This change may introduce incompatibilities when using
-numbers with leading `0` as they will now be parsed as octal.
-
-### Fix embedded implementations of `epicsEvent`
-
-[GH:202](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/issues/202) and
-[GH:206](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/pull/206)
-
-Heinz Junkes provided a new implementation of the `epicsEvent` API suitable for
-RTEMS Posix targets (RTEMS 5.1 and later). In review a few issues related to
-overflow of timeout values surfaced in this and other embedded implementations,
-and these were also been fixed in this Pull Request. The API documentation for
-this and some other routines has also been updated.
-
-### Breakpoint Table Names
-
-The names of breakpoint tables were made unnecessarily strict when DBD file
-processing was moved to Perl for the 3.15 release series. Table names may now
-contain the special characters `_` `-` `:` `;` `.` `[` `]` `<` `>` in addition
-to letters and digits.
-
-### Fix for `undefined` in configure/RELEASE files
-
-Prevents `Use of uninitialized value` warnings from convertRelease.pl.
-
-### Colorized Messages for errlog
-
-Many internal error messages now emit ANSI escape sequences to highlight the
-words "ERROR" and "WARNING" in an attempt to make occurrences more noticeable
-during IOC startup.
-
-The macros `ERL_ERROR` and `ERL_WARNING` are defined for external usage,
-and expand as string constants.  eg.
-
-```c
-#include <errlog.h>
-#ifndef ERL_ERROR
-#  define ERL_ERROR "ERROR"
-#endif
-void fn() {
-   ...
-   errlogPrintf(ERL_ERROR ": something bad happens :(\n");
-```
-
-ANSI escapes are automatically removed from errlog output not destined
-for a terminal.  For example, for logClient, if stderr is redirected,
-or if unsupported (`$TERM` not set, or Windows < 10).
-
-### `dbnd` filter pass through `DBE_ALARM|DBE_PROPERTY`
-
-The `dbnd` server side filter now passes through alarm and property
-change events, even when not exceeding the deadband.
-
------
-
-## EPICS Release 7.0.6.1
-
-### `mbboDirectRecord` enhancements
-
-The bit fields `B0` - `B1F` of this record are now always updated and have a
-monitor posted when the `VAL` field is set and the record processed. It is now
-possible to initialize the record's value by setting the bit fields inside a
-database file as long as no other method was used to initialize it (suc as
-setting `VAL` directly, using `DOL`, or by an initial readback from device
-support). A new internal field `OBIT` was added to store information about
-monitors posted on the bit fields.
-
-### Minimum Perl Version is now 5.10.1
-
-Some scripts now make use of features that were introduced to this Perl version
-that was released in 2009.
-
-### DB Links to `DBF_MENU` fields fixed
-
-[GH:183](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/issues/183)
-These were broken in a previous release, but now work again.
-
-### Long String access to CALC fields fixed
-
-[GH:194](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/issues/194)
-This was broken in a previous release, but now works again.
-
-### Minor Changes
-
-+ Many code comments have been spell-checked and corrected.
-+ Passing a `-DDEBUG` compiler flag no longer breaks the build.
-+ Parallel builds of RTEMS-mvme2100 and RTEMS-mvme2700 targets now work.
-+ Illegal characters seen in JSON strings in a database file should now get a
-better error message.

-  Windows for non-EPICS threads
-
-### Compiler interface for epicsAtomic tidied up
-
-[GH:192](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/pull/192)
-Both GCC and CLANG compiler intrisics used for the epicsAtomic APIs have been revised; implementations using CLANG should now run faster as they now use the compiler's built-in atomic functions instead of taking a mutex.
-
-### The epicsTime code has been reimplemented
-
-[GH:185](https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base/pull/185)
-This was done to simplify the code and may have improved performance slightly for some uses. Support for the old NTP-specific `struct l_fp` has been dropped but all other routines and methods of the `class epicsTime` function as before.
-
-### Updates to Record Reference documentation
-
-Many of the built-in record types have had improvements to their documentation with additional fields added to the tables, rewrites of descriptions and links to other documents added or fixed.

+### Timeouts for Unit Test Programs
+
+The unit test programs that are run by the `make runtests` or `make tapfiles`
+commands get executed by a `.t` wrapper script which is normally generated by
+the EPICS `makeTestfile.pl` program. Those generated wrapper scripts now
+impose a time-limit on the test program they execute, and will kill it if it
+runs for longer than 500 seconds (8 minutes 20) without exiting. That
+time-limit can be changed for any such test by modifying the Makefile which
+creates and runs the `.t` wrapper script.
+
+Setting the environment variable `EPICS_UNITTEST_TIMEOUT` to the desired
+number of seconds while the Makefile is generating the test script changes the
+timeout in that script. For example:
+
+```
+  TESTSCRIPTS_HOST += hourLongTest.t
+  hourLongTest.t: export EPICS_UNITTEST_TIMEOUT=3600
+```
+
+When selecting such a timeout remember that different Continuous Integration
+systems such as GitHub Actions and Appveyor run on processors with different
+speeds, so allow enough head-room for slower systems to complete the test.
+
+Test programs written directly in Perl as a `.plt` script should implement a
+similar timeout for themselves. The "netget" test in Base does this in a way
+that works on Windows as well as Unix-like hosts.

 <h3>The Release Process</h3>
 
-<p>We used to have one written down here, but we weren't following it very
-closely so now the decision to make a new release is taken during the Core
-Developers bi-weekly meetings in an informal manner. The steps detailed below
-were written to remind Andrew (or anyone else who does the release) about
-everything that has to be done since it's so easy to miss steps.</p>
+<h4>Full Process</h4>
+
+<p>The version released on the Feature Freeze date is designated the first
+pre-release, <tt>-pre1</tt>. The first release candidate <tt>-rc1</tt> is the
+first version that has undergone testing by the developers and has shown no
+problems that must be fixed before release. New versions should be made at about
+2-weekly intervals after the <tt>-pre1</tt> release, and designated as either
+pre-release or release candidate versions by the Release Manager. Release
+candidates are announced to the whole community via the tech-talk mailing list,
+pre-releases are announced to to the developers via the core-talk list. After a
+release candidate has been available for 2 weeks without any new problems being
+reported or major changes having to be committed, the final release can be
+made.</p>
+
+<h4>Short Process for Patch Releases</h4>
+
+<p>The Patch Release date and its scope are agreed upon a few weeks ahead of the
+release. If no blocking issues are raised, the release is made by the Release
+Manager on or as soon as possible after that date, following the steps below
+starting at <a href="#ReleaseApproval">Release Approval</a>.</p>
