+skiboot-5.1.14
+--------------
+
+skiboot-5.1.14 was released on Wed March 9th, 2016.
+
+skiboot-5.1.14 is the 15th stable release of 5.1, it follows skiboot-5.1.13
+(which was released January 27th, 2016). This release contains a spelling
+fix in a log message and an added device tree property to enable older
+kernels (with bootloader support) to use a framebuffer that is redirected
+to the BMC VGA port.
+
+As such, skiboot-5.1.14 has no advantage over skiboot-5.1.13 unless you
+are wanting the neat offb framebuffer trick.
+
+Changes are:
+- fsp: fix spelling of "advertise" in log message
+ See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc
+- Explicit 1:1 mapping in ranges properties have been added to PCI
+ bridges. This allows a neat trick with offb and VGA ports that should
+ probably not be told to young children.
