 Please refrain from using the `master` branch for anything else but development purposes!
 Use the most recent release instead. You can list all releases by running `git tag`

 If you're using the autoupdater, do not autoupdate nodes with anything but releases.
 If you upgrade using random master commits the nodes *will break* eventually.

+Bugfixes
+~~~~~~~~
+
+* LEDE has been updated to the latest stable commit, including various fixes for
+  the kernel (including security updates), and making opkg work again. This also
+  includes fixes for the KRACK issue (which is irrelevant for most Gluon
+  deployments, as Gluon nodes are rarely used as WLAN clients)

+Known issues
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
+
+  Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
+
+* The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
+
+  This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promicious mode is disallowed).
+
+* Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
+
+  The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
+
+* Sporadic segfaults of busybox (ash) when running shell scripts on ar71xx
+  (`#1157 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1157>`_)
+
+  The workaround added in Gluon v2017.1.1 has greatly reduced the frequency of
+  segfaults, but it did not make them disappear completely.
