+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to KAMERA are documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.5.0] - 2026-07-21
+
+### Added
+
+- Dropdown selectors for Phase One shutter speed, gain, and aperture, with proper
+  electronic/leaf shutter mapping.
+- The 'Set' button lights up whenever a camera parameter changes, making pending
+  changes obvious.
+- Optional GPU JPEG compression via nvJPEG, enabled with the `/sys/arch/use_nvjpeg` flag.
+- Power management (system startup/shutdown/reboot) as a simple stateful REST API,
+  managed by kamerad and supervisor.
+- kamerad runs on system startup and auto-restarts.
+- Default camera configuration JSONs ship with the repo; defaults load based on the
+  system name.
+- Additional color status indicators in the GUI, and a warning when no detector
+  pipefile is configured.
+- Ansible tasks for system stop/start and docker restarts.
+- Local docker registry on leader machines for distributing images to the rest of
+  the system; leader machines also build the core and VIAME images.
+- Tailscale installed with the system for remote access.
+- Desktop shortcuts installed during provisioning, including a convenience symlink
+  to the NAS.
+- Script to seed the redis configuration during provisioning.
+- nayak system support: tailored configuration (no IR/UV cameras) and a local
+  stratum-3 NTP server so systems stay synchronized offline.
+
+### Changed
+
+- GUI ported to ROS Noetic: all images now build on Ubuntu 20.04 with Python 3 and
+  wxPython 4.
+- Save is now a single button: it finalizes changes, writes camera configurations to
+  disk, and refreshes the main panel dropdown.
+- Shutter speed is displayed directly instead of exposure in milliseconds.
+- Flight number entry is more forgiving and no longer errors on every change.
+- Contrast control is greyed out when the server manages it; disabled controls now
+  show their values in a clearer disabled style.
+- GUI layout overhauled: INS data in two columns, wider camera dropdowns, working
+  About dialog, and many scaling fixes to eliminate clipped text and squished panels.
+- Icons refreshed and properly labeled.
+- `kamera_run` now just launches the GUI when the system is already up, so a
+  separate GUI desktop icon is no longer needed.
+- Hostnames follow a new center/left/right convention (hyphen-free for ROS
+  compatibility), and start/stop scripts use it uniformly.
+- Startup calls tmux directly, and environment/image-tag configuration is
+  consolidated into supervisord globals and a `.env` file.
+- Clear configuration boundaries: yaml files hold static, system-specific options;
+  `system_state.json` holds mutable, GUI-facing state.
+- Configuration conflict resolution reports what changed instead of failing silently.
+- redis configuration consolidated.
+- Docker build chain cleaned up: concrete makefile steps and explicit compose builds
+  that respect `depends_on` order.
+- NFS version pinned and NAS mount points created ahead of mounting, for more
+  reliable NAS access.
+- GUI relicensed under Apache 2.0; old license headers removed.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- INS panel incorrectly showing yellow (string vs. int comparison).
+- ~10-frame lag in the image counter display; the frame buffer is also flushed when
+  archiving stops, so counts stay accurate.
+- GUI no longer hangs during SSD / NAS health checks (moved to a background thread).
+- Race condition where the detector gauge started red.
+- Intermittent X Windows errors when launching the GUI (containers now use
+  `ipc: host`).
+- Phase One debayering failures: added error handling around queue writes and
+  removed a hardcoded output path.
+- The image-processing queue is recreated on each run, guaranteeing every file gets
+  processed.
+- Detector pipefile loading is more robust.
+
+### Removed
+
+- Legacy ROS Kinetic / Python 2 code paths and shims.
+- tmuxinator dependency.
