FreeIPMI 1.3.1 - 08/22/13
-------------------------

Tools - New Features
--------------------
o In all tools reporting time (ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru, ipmi-oem,
  bmc-device, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-dcmi), timestamps are now reporting
  under the assumption the timestamp is already in localtime (compared
  to being in UTC time and converted to localtime).  This is by
  definition in the IPMI specification.
o In all tools reporting time (ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru, ipmi-oem,
  bmc-device, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-dcmi), support --utc-to-localtime,
  --localtime-to-utc, and --utc-offset options to allow users to
  adjust timestamps as needed for certain environments.
o In ipmi-fru, support output of DDR3 SDRAM modules.
o In ipmi-fru, support output of new FRU multirecords, most notably
  extended DC output and extended DC load (per FRU Revision 1.2
  update).
o In bmc-device, support --get-sel-time-utc-offset and
  --set-sel-time-utc-offset.

Tools - Bug Fixes/Minor Changes
-------------------------------
o In ipmi-fru, report power supply low/high end voltage ranges as
  signed numbers (per FRU Revision 1.2 update).
o In ipmi-fru, output "unspecified" for manufacturing date/time or
  peak capacity as appropriate (per FRU Revision 1.2 update).
o In ipmi-fru, bridge additional FRU entries as appropriate. 
o In all tools reporting time (ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru, ipmi-oem,
  bmc-device, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-dcmi), special timestamps such as
  Post-Init and Unspecified will now be output.
o Fix output corner case with entity sensor names in various tools.

Libraries
---------
o In libfreeipmi, support additional chassis types (per FRU Revision
  1.2 update).
o In libfreeipmi, support new FRU multirecord types (per FRU Revision
  1.2 update).
o In libfreeipmi, support new IPMI_FRU_FLAGS_READ_RAW 'fru'
  sub-library flag to read data from the FRU raw without parsing
  headers/records.
o In libfreeipmi, add support for DDR3 SDRAM FRU entries and JEDEC
  manufacturer IDs.
o In libfreeipmi, add support for Get SEL Time UTC Offset and Set SEL
  Time UTC Offset payloads.
o In libfreeipmi 'sel' sub-library, support
  IPMI_SEL_PARAMETER_UTC_OFFSET,
  IPMI_SEL_STRING_FLAGS_UTC_TO_LOCALTIME, and
  IPMI_SEL_STRING_FLAGS_LOCALTIME_TO_UTC options/flags.
o In libfreeipmi, do not pad legacy byte on IPMI 1.5 packets.  Legacy
  byte should be padded on ethernet frame, not IP packet.
o In libfreeipmi, 'sdr' sub-library, when creating SDR cache, add
  checksums to cache to ensure data in cache is not corrupted.  Older
  caches without checksums still backwards compatible supported.
o In libfreeipmi, support new IPMI_ERR_COMMAND_INVALID_OR_UNSUPPORTED
  error code for IPMI commands that are invalid or unsupported.
