+2021.05-rc1, not yet released
+
+       Fixes all over the tree and new features.
+
+       FORTIFY_SOURCE, PIC/PIE, RELRO and SSP security hardening
+       options are now enabled by default.
+
+       Dependencies: Explicitly detect and bail out if PATH contains
+       spaces or tabs. A number of packages fail to build in such
+       setups, so explicitly inform about this.
+
+       Infrastructure: Expose CONFIG_DIR to post-build/post-image
+       scripts, so they can call the Buildroot Makefile in the
+       correct directory for both in-tree / out-of-tree builds.
+
+       CMake infrastructure: Use CMAKE_EXE_LINKERFLAGS rather than
+       CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS to link with libatomic to fix an compatibility
+       issue with poppler. Bump minimal host cmake version to 3.16
+       (from 3.15) to fix a compatibility issue with domoticz.
+
+       Meson: Use correct C++ host compiler (rather than C compiler)
+
+       utils/scanpypi: Explicitly use python3 for compatibility with
+       packages using python3 syntax in setup.py
+
+       support/download: Fix tarball generation (from git/svn repos)
+       including symlinks pointing to ./<something>. Fix svn download
+       for <1.9 clients or repos using CVS-style keywords.
+
+       support/scripts/cve.py: Use the (significantly) faster yajl2
+       ijson backend for older (< 2.5) ijson versions rather than the
+       slow python default, speeding up pkg-stats by ~2x.
+
+       Toolchain: Add logic to work around binutils bug 21464
+       (affecting OpenRISC), bug 27597 (affecting Nios II) and drop
+       the now longer applicable bug 19615 / 20006 handling.
+
+       Python{,3}: Fix byte compiling python files with short (single
+       character before .py) file names.
+
+       CPE meta data has been added for a large number of packages
+
+       New defconfigs: Acme Systems Acqua A5 (256/512MB), Beagleboard
+       BeagleV, Boundary devices Nitrogen8M Plus SOM, NXP i.MX 8M
+       Plus EVK, QEMU PPC e500mc
+
+       New packages: beaglev-ddrinit, beaglev-secondboot, janet,
+       kodi-inputstream-ffmpegdirect, kodi-vfs-libarchive,
+       kodi-visualisation-matrix, libxcrypt, libqrtr-glib, log4qt,
+       mawk, perl-parse-yapp, postgis, protozero, python-flask-wtf,
+       python-iwlib, python-semantic-version, python-setuptools-rust,
+       python-toml, riscv64-elf-toolchain, siproxyd, uftrace, zfs
+
+       Removed packages: iostat, kodi-platform,
+       kodi-screensaver-crystalmorph, monkey
