 Notes for this release:
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-This is version 1.2 of EduMIPS64, a bug-fix release that follows up on
-version 1.1, that was released almost 3 months ago. The codename for this
-release is "Ringsend", since most of the code has been written in the
-beautiful neighborhood of Ringsend, in Dublin 4.
+This is version 1.2.1 of EduMIPS64, a bug-fix release that follows up on
+version 1.2, that was released almost 3 years ago. The codename for this
+release is "IFSC", since it is being released from a nice apartment in IFSC,
+Dublin 1.
 
-This release mainly fixes bugs in the Dinero Frontend, plus another critical
-bug (access to negative memory addresses would just raise a
-StringIndexOutOfBoundException) and includes some internal cleanups.
+Most of the code was written in Portobello, Dublin 8, a few airports around
+the world and - of course - IFSC.
+
+This release mostly fixes minor issues, listed later, and contains several
+internal changes made in these 3 years to improve the code quality.
 
 Please keep in mind that this is still EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE. It may
 BURN YOUR HARD DISK, DESTROY ALL YOUR DATA and even GO OUT WITH YOUR
 WIFE/HUSBAND. :)
