 Change History
 --------------
 
+Version 0.9.23 - January 16, 2002
+
+* New, compile-time conditional for testing better RX reset
+* Only account specific RX errors if rx_status is !OK
+
+
 Version 0.9.22 - November 8, 2001
 
 * Additional retries before aborting Tx
 * Do not write other TxConfig bits when writing clear-abort bit.
 * Ack TxErr intr status after each Tx abort, too.
+* Fix oops in interface restart
 
 
 Version 0.9.21 - November 1, 2001
