 * New developer utility fc-bin2rftab can read or extract RF parameter tables
   from binary files and convert them into our FreeCalypso ASCII format.
 
+* Iota poweroff command in the target-utils suite (primarily affecting the
+  loadagent target program used by loadtools) now programs the VRPCAUX register
+  like TI's TCS211 firmware does before sending the DEVOFF command.  This
+  change fixes the erratic behaviour that was occurring on TI/FC development
+  boards (D-Sample and FCDEV3B) when fc-loadtool (or fc-iram with some
+  specialized target-utils program) was entered via the RESET button rather
+  than PWON, followed by the soft poweroff operation and another switch-on via
+  PWON.  For more details, please refer to the Calypso-test-reset article in
+  the freecalypso-docs repository.

 * target-utils/flash-boot-test (developers-only target code piece that is not
   compiled or installed by default): added a few special watchdog commands to
   facilitate experimentation with the watchdog timer function in the Calypso.
