+Release notes
+****************************************************************************
+Release date: Dec 20th, 2014.
+OS: Ubuntu 12.0.4 and above
+Requires boost version 1.55 to build.
+Code buildable in gcc 4.6.3 and above.
+NOTE: Boost is not distributed but should be installed in the Ubuntu machine.
+*****************************************************************************
+
+What is new?
+
+Features:
+---------
+
+Device discovery:
+-----------------
+The device description resource is a virtual resource that provides a representation
+that contains information about the device. It provides a standard mechanism to query
+well-known device meta-data including but not limited to device id, name etc. Device
+discovery feature provides a mechanism to find devices based on specific device-level
+attributes.
+
+Samples demonstrating device discovery:
+devicediscoveryserver and devicediscoveryclient in C++
+ocserver and occlient in C
+
+
+------------
+API changes:
+------------
+
+--------------------------------------------
+Class OCPlatform (Header file: OCPlatform.h)
+--------------------------------------------
+
+***********************
+registerDeviceInfo API
+***********************
+
+This new API allows server app to provide the device information.
+
+***********************
+getDeviceInfo API
+***********************
+
+This new API allows client app to find the device and get the device information.
+
+--------------------------------------------
+Header file: ocstack.h
+--------------------------------------------
+
+***********************
+OCSetDeviceInfo API
+***********************
+
+This new API allows to set the device information.
+
+
+------------
+Notes:
+------------
+1. Multiple improvements in active discovery/presence
+- Callback includes host information
+- Added support to allow more than one presence resource type filter
+
+2. Klocwork issues fixed in C++ samples, SDK and C samples.
+
+3. Multiple bug fixes updated in Jira.
+
+General notes:
+--------------
+Maximum length of URI supported is 64 bytes (sent from the client)
+Maximum length of query supported is 64 bytes (sent from the client)
+Maximum length of request from client and response from server for Arduino is is 256 bytes
+Maximum length of request from client and response from server for non-Ardunio is is 1024 bytes
+
+OIC base supports Arduino WiFi shield.
+This support has been tested with Arduino Mega 2560 and with Arduino 1.0.5 WiFi library.
+Please refer to oic-resource/csdk/README file for building OIC base with WiFi support.
+
+--------
+Samples:
+--------
+
+C++ Samples
+-----------
+
+A basic sample for hosting a resource on a server and a sample for client for discovering resources
+are provided here:
+Simple server sample location: oic-resource/examples/simpleserver.cpp
+Simple client sample location: oic-resource/examples/simpleclient.cpp
+Server and client mode (mode type both) location: oic-resource/examples/simpleclientserver.cpp
+Simpleserver and simpleclient samples also provide examples for doing POST operation.
+Simpleserver also demonstrates slow response case for a GET request.
+
+Garage samples provide usage of OCRepresentation, get/set attribute values
+oic-resource/examples/garageclient.cpp
+oic-resource/examples/garageserver.cpp
+
+Fridge samples provide usage of constructResourceObject API, std bind
+(for mapping request and responses), default
+device entity handler, header options support and Delete operation.
+oic-resource/examples/fridgeclient.cpp
+oic-resource/examples/fridgeserver.cpp
+
+Presence samples provides examples to use presence APIs
+Sample with basic presence feature for server side: oic-resource/examples/presenceserver.cpp
+Sample with basic presence feature for client side: oic-resource/examples/presenceclient.cpp
+
+Room samples provides examples to use resource collection.
+oic-resource/examples/roomclient.cpp
+oic-resource/examples/roomserver.cpp
+
+After building the code in oic-resource, executables for samples are in directory named
+'oic-resource/samples/release'.
+After building the code in oic-resource, executables are in directory named 'oic-resource/release'.
