+==============
+
+skiboot 6.0.19 was released on Tuesday March 19th, 2019. It replaces
+:ref:`skiboot-6.0.18` as the current stable release in the 6.0.x series.
+
+It is recommended that 6.0.19 be used instead of any previous 6.0.x version
+due to the bug fixes it contains.
+
+Bug fixes included in this release are:
+
+- p9dsu: Undo slot label name changes
+
+ During some code updates the slot labels were updated to reflect
+ the phb layout, however expectations were that the slot labels be
+ aligned with the riser card slots and not the system planar slots.
+
+ [stewart: The tale of how we got here is long and varied and not at
+ all clear. The first ESS systems went out with a skiboot v5.9.8 with
+ additional SuperMicro patches. It was probably a slot table, but who knows,
+ we don't have the code so can't check. It's possible it was all coming
+ in through HDAT instead). The op-build tree (thus the exact patches)
+ shipped on systems that work correct seems to not be around anywhere anymore
+ (if it ever was). It was only in skiboot v6.0 that a slot table made
+ it in, and, of course, only having remote machines in random configs,
+ including possibly with riser cards from Briggs&Stratton rather than
+ the ones destined for this system, doesn't make for verifying this
+ at all. It also doesn't help that *consistently* there is *never*
+ any review on slot tables, and we've had things be wrong in the past.
+ Combine this with not upstream Hostboot patches.]
+
+- p9dsu: Fix slot labels for p9dsu2u
+
+ Update the slot labels for the p9dsu2u tables.
