-  This includes several important bugfixes:
+  This release is difficult to categorize;
+  NuttX-5.9 was really released because there were too many changes accumulating in CVS --
+  a few important, some large, unverified implementations, and a couple of important bugfixes.
+  <ul>
+    <li>
+      By far biggest change in this release is the complete implementation of on-demand paging support.
+      This feature will allow you to execute large programs on a mass storage device (such as SPI FLASH) in a small RAM.
+      All of the core on-demand paging logic was completed
+      (see <a href="http://www.nuttx.org/NuttXDemandPaging.html">NuttXDemandPaging.html</a>)
+      and support was implemented for the ARM-9 family.
+      A test configuration is in place for the NXP LPC3131.
+      It has been verified that this new logic does not interfere with normal fixed-page ARM9 operation, but otherwise this new on-demand paging feature is untested.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Add support for the CodeSourcery toolchain to the Olimex-lpc2378 port and for the Neuros OSD port.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      The Neuros OSD port has been updated to work with the production v1.0 OSD
+      (previously there was NuttX support only for the development board).
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      And some miscellaneous feature enhancements as detailed in the <a href="#currentrelease">ChangeLog</a>.
+    </li>
+  </ul>
 </p>
-<ul>
-  <li>Corrects some interrupt vectoring for the TI/Stellarix LM3S port,</li>
-  <li>Correct initialization logic for NXP LPC17xxx NuttX ports:  Power was not being provided to the GPIO module!</li>
-  <li>Corrected (but did not verify) implementation of the optional interrupt stack feature (all Cortex M3 architectures), and</li>
-  <li>Correct a HardFault in the LPC17xx SSP driver.</li>
-</ul>

+  This includes several important bugfixes:
+  <ul>
+    <li>
+      NXP LPC17xx - Fixed a critical bug in the GPIO configuratino logic:

+    </li>
+    <li>
+      TI/Luminary LM3Sxxxx - Fixed (1) a logic error in an address table lookup,
+      (2) GPIO port encoding the limited support to only 8 GPIO ports.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Corrected the lease time in the DHCPC implementation:
+      It was not in host byte order.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      And several other less important bugs as documented in the <a href="#currentrelease">ChangeLog</a>:
+      Warnings, cornercase compilation problems, etc.
+    </li>
+  </ul>
 </p>
-<ul>
-  <li>
-    Added microSD support for the NuttShell (NSH) configuration in the Nucleus2G LPC1768 port.
-    For reasons that have not yet been determined, I have not successfully accessed the microSD card as of this writing.
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    Two USB configurations were also added for the Nucleus2G board:
-    One to support the USB serial device and one for the USB mass storage device.
-    Some testing of the USB driver was performed, but full verification is stalled for an OTG style USB cable.
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    LEDs now work correctly on the Nucleus2G LPC1768 board.
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    The uIP-based NuttX networking subsystem now supports IGMPv2 client.
-    IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) network &quot;appliances&quot; to join into multicast groups.
-    Outbound traffic to enter and leave multicast groups has been verified, but full verification will require a switch capable of multicast.
-    Issues associated with the receipt of multicast packets are likely.
