[ANNOUNCE] barebox-2009.12.0 has been released

[Robert Schwebel]

Revision 2009.12.0 of the barebox bootloader (formerly known as
u-boot-v2) has been released on http://www.barebox.org

This is the initial release since it has been renamed to barebox.

Here are some of the feature highlights:

* POSIX based file API
* Shell commands like ls/cd/mkdir/echo/cat,...
* The environment is not a variable store any more, but a file store.
  You can use it for proper shell scripting now.
* Real filesystem support: mounts ramdisk on /, devfs on /dev, plus
  cramfs support (more to come)
* device/driver model
* clocksource support
* Kconfig and Kernel build system
* Simulation target
* device parameter support
* initcalls
* getopt
* editor

More can be found in the online documentation at
http://www.barebox.org/documentation/barebox-2009.12.0/

Shortlog since u-boot-v2.0.0-rc10 follows below.
