@@ -6,12 +6,18 @@ a simple PUS (CCSDS) interface to update the software. It also provides a Python
 called the `image-loader.py` which can be used to upload compiled images to the flashloader
 application to write them to the NVM.
 
+Please note that the both the application and the image loader are tailored towards usage
+with the [bootloader provided by this repository](https://egit.irs.uni-stuttgart.de/rust/va416xx-rs/src/branch/main/bootloader).
+
 The software can quickly be adapted to interface with a real primary on-board software instead of
 the Python script provided here to upload images because it uses a low-level CCSDS based packet
 interface.
 
 ## Using the Python image loader
 
+The Python image loader communicates with the Rust flashload application using a dedicated serial
+port with a baudrate of 115200.
+
 It is recommended to run the script in a dedicated virtual environment. For example, on UNIX
 systems you can use `python3 -m venv venv` and then `source venv/bin/activate` to create
 and activate a virtual environment.

 # [unreleased]
 
-# [v0.2.0]
+# [v0.3.0] 2024-30-09
+
+## Changed
+
+- Improve and fix SPI abstractions. Add new low level interface. The primary SPI constructor now
+  only expects a configuration structure and the transfer configuration needs to be applied in a
+  separate step.
+- Added an additional way to read the UART RX with IRQs. The module documentation provides
+  more information.
+- Made the UART with IRQ API more flexible for future additions.
+- Improved UART API result and error handling, added low level API to read from and write
+  to the FIFO directly
+
+## Fixed
+
+- Fixes for SPI peripheral: Flush implementation was incorrect and should now flush properly.
+- Fixes for SPI example
+- Fixes for RTIC example
+
+# [v0.2.0] 2024-09-18
 
 - Documentation improvements
 - Improved UART typing support: Validity of passed pins is now checked properly

 - Fixes for the SPI implementation where the clock divider values were not calculated

 - Fixes for UART IRQ handler implementation
+- Add new IRQ router initialization method `irq_router::enable_and_init_irq_router`. This method
+  also sets the initial values of some registers to 0 where the datasheet and the actual reset
+  value are inconsistent, which can lead to weird bugs like IRQs not being triggered properly.

 # Rust BSP for the Vorago PEB1 development board
 
-## Using the `.cargo/config.toml` file
+This is the Rust **B**oard **S**upport **P**ackage crate for the Vorago PEB1 development board.
+Its aim is to provide drivers for the board features of the PEB1 board.
 
-Use the following command to have a starting `config.toml` file
-
-```sh
-cp .cargo/def-config.toml .cargo/config.toml
-```
-
-You then can adapt the `config.toml` to your needs. For example, you can configure runners
-to conveniently flash with `cargo run`.
+The BSP builds on top of the [HAL crate for VA416xx devices](https://egit.irs.uni-stuttgart.de/rust/va416xx-rs/src/branch/main/va416xx-hal).
