+skiboot-5.2.0-rc2
+-----------------
+
+skiboot-5.2.0-rc2 was released on Wednesday March 9th, 2016.
+
+skiboot-5.2.0-rc2 is the second release candidate of skiboot 5.2, which will
+become the new stable release of skiboot following the 5.1 release, first
+released August 17th, 2015.
+
+skiboot-5.2.0-rc2 contains all bug fixes as of skiboot-5.1.14.
+
+This is the second release that will follow the (now documented) Skiboot
+stable rules - see doc/stable-skiboot-rules.txt.
+
+The current plan is to release skiboot-5.2.0 mid-March 2016, with a focus on
+bug fixing for future 5.2.0-rc releases (if any - I hope this will be the last)
+
