 Changes
 -------
-* Added ftdi_usb_get_strings2() to prevent automatic device close (Fahrzin Hemmati)
-* Added ftdi_transfer_data_cancel() for cancellation of a submitted transfer,
-  avoided resubmittion of a canceled transfer in the callbacks,
-  replaced calls to libusb_handle_events with
-  libusb_handle_events_timeout_completed (Eugene Hutorny)
+* Implement tc[io]flush methods & deprecate broken purge_buffers methods
+
+  Please check your code for ftdi_usb_purge_rx_buffer(),
+  ftdi_usb_purge_tx_buffer() and ftdi_usb_purge_buffers()
+  and migrate to the new ftdi_tc[io]flush() methods.
+
+  Old code will continue to function, but you'll get
+  a deprecation warning during compilation.
+
+* Add program to test buffer flush (purge) functionality
+* Add kernel driver auto attach/detach.
+  See new AUTO_DETACH_REATACH_SIO_MODULE option
+* Add ftdi_setflowctrl_xonxoff()
 * ftdi_eeprom / eeprom handling:
-  * Add support for arbitrary user data (Salvador Eduardo Tropea)
-  * Add --build-eeprom support (Salvador Eduardo Tropea)
-  * Fix use_usb_version config file option (Thilo Schulz)
-  * Ability to include other config files in EEPROM config file (Thilo Schulz)
-  * Add external oscillator enable bit (Raphael Assenat)
-  * Support channel configuration (Stephan Linz)
-  * Added --device option to ftdi_eeprom to specify FTDI device (Robin Haberkorn)
-  * Fixed EEPROM user-area space checks for FT232R and FT245R chips (Robin Haberkorn)
-* Various improvements to CBUS handling, including the EEPROM (Robin Haberkorn)
-* swig wrapper: Fix handling of binary strings in ftdi_write_data()
-  for python 3 (xantares09)
-* cbus python example code (Rodney Sinclair)
-* ftdi_stream: fix timeout setting (Ларионов Даниил)
-* Fixed typo in CBUS defines: CBUSG_DRIVE1 -> CBUSH_DRIVE1
+  * Unify handling of all boolean eeprom flags
+  * Add device release number support
+  * Add channel_a_driver support for type xxR chips
+  * Add support for group0 drive levels on x232H chips
+  * Fix handling of high_current_drive parameter
+  * Fix inverted handling of VCP driver field for TYPE_R chips
+  * New --verbose option for eeprom decode operation
+* Add example code for async mode
+* Add SPDX license identifiers to the core library & ftdi_eeprom
+* Various python SWIG wrapper improvements
+* Various cmake file improvements
+* Fix small bugs in error code paths
