+Date: Jan 29, 2024
+
+### New Features
+- AAGBT-42: Add AWS IoT Core support
+- AAGBT-76: Add a [developers guide](./docs/OobDevelopmentNotes.md) to help developers leverage the OOB application for custom designs
+- AABGT-114: Add support to modify the [decimation_inshift](./docs/ApplicationUserGuide.md#audio-input-level-control) model values from the config.ini file
+- AABGT-117: Add Syntiant SDK v105 support
+- AABGT-126: Create a [video series](./docs/RASnyVideoSeries.md) to help developers use the OOB application
+- AABGT-129: Create a [troubleshooting guide](./docs/RASynTroubleshootingGuide.md) to help developers overcome common issues
+- AABGT-130: Update the application to capture and report inference count by inference ID.  Add this data to any cloud connected telemetry messages.
+- AABGT-142: Add new ```[Function_x]``` blocks targeting the Edge Impulse motion and audio models to allow users to drop in models generated on Edge Impulse.
+- AABGT-112: Add a [time server configuration](./docs/ApplicationUserGuide.md#wifi-time-server) item to the config.ini file and underlying code to support using a custom time server
+
+### Bug Fixes
+- AAGBT-82: Corrected an issue where the circular IMU model could not capture IMU data for training 
+- AABGT-120: Corrected an issue where the device would not get an IP address when using the Renesas WiFi Configuration mobile device application
+- AABGT-113: Improved debug when the application does not get a valid IP address or time from the time server
+- AABGT-104: Corrected an issue where the dual microphone models did not work
+
+### Known Issues
+- AABGT-105: When using a custom BLE name, the OOB application is not able to connect to the Python GUI demo application
+- AABGT-123: When capturing audio, or IMU data if there is an issue receiving data from the NDP120 the application hangs
