• New SCR display in KF Desktop, showing information on SCR components.
• Corrected potential race conditions in framework.
• Updated framework / system bundle symbolic name, version and other header values.
• Corrected NPE in EventAdmin when handling unregistered services.
• An http console command group has been added to the HTTP server for inspecting the HTTP server and its settings and status.
• Several stability issues and improvement in UPnP CP and UPnP Device, e.g. improved robustness and better error handling if other devices fail to follow the UPnP spec., retry of device refresh upon failures, corrected threading issues when adding or removing devices, corrections in subscription id handling.

New versions of Ubicore and Knopflerfish Pro CVIS, based on the new KF Pro version, are scheduled for update releases in the very near future.
