+    - kernel modules are renamed. openvswitch_mod.ko is now
+      openvswitch.ko and brcompat_mod.ko is now brcompat.ko.
+    - Increased the number of NXM registers to 8.
+    - Added ability to configure dscp setting for manager and controller
+      connections.  By default, these connections have a DSCP value of
+      Internetwork Control (0xc0).
+    - Added the granular link health statistics, 'cfm_health', to an
+      interface.
+    - OpenFlow:
+        - Added support to mask nd_target for ICMPv6 neighbor discovery flows.
+        - Added support for OpenFlow 1.3 port description (OFPMP_PORT_DESC)
+          multipart messages.
+    - ovs-ofctl:
+        - Added the "dump-ports-desc" command to retrieve port
+          information using the new port description multipart messages.
+    - ovs-test:
+        - Added support for spawning ovs-test server from the client.
+        - Now ovs-test is able to automatically create test bridges and ports.
+    - "ovs-dpctl dump-flows" now prints observed TCP flags in TCP flows.
+    - The "coverage/log" command previously available through ovs-appctl
+      has been replaced by "coverage/show".  The new command replies with
+      coverage counter values, instead of logging them.

     - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds
       to 300 seconds.  The MAC learning timeout is now configurable.
     - When QoS settings for an interface do not configure a default queue
       (queue 0), Open vSwitch now uses a default configuration for that
       queue, instead of dropping all packets as in previous versions.
-    - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for all
-      the daemons. An example of the default format is 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z.

       table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon
       overflow.  See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5)
