• Fix binary paths to confirm with modern standards
• Integration tests on CI's that support it or for the folks at home with an arduino handy
• Upgrade to nan-2.2.1 for memory leak fixes and node 6 compatibility (still not supported)
• Confirm nw.js and electron compatibility
• Make the outpout of .list consistent between platforms and docs
• Define ambiguous flow control flags and document them
• Fix support systems who provide 0 as a valid file descriptor
• Fix race conditions when opening and closing ports that led to errors while reading and writing while closing or opening the port.
• [unix] Fix a double open bug on unix that would cause opening and closing ports repetitively to error.
• [unix] Listing serialports on linux now include more ports (including bluetooth devices eg. /dev/rfcommXX) and have less bugs in the output
• [windows] Remove deprecated BuildCommDCB for windows 10 support
• [windows] Fix a memory leak on windows
• [windows] Fix a 100% cpu and possible hang bug when ports were disconnected on windows.

Version 2.0.7-beta5

• Fix binary paths to confirm with modern standards
• Confirm ns.js and electron compatibility
• Make the outpout of .list consistent between platforms and docs
• Define ambiguous flow control flags and document them
• Add support for bluetooth devices in .list /dev/rfcommXX

Version 2.0.7-beta3

• Fix support systems who provide 0 as a valid file descriptor
• Integration tests on CI's that support it or for the folks at home with an arduino handy
• Many documentation improvements
• Listing serialports on unix/linux (non osx) now include more ports and have less bugs in the output
• Fix race conditions when opening and closing ports that led to errors while reading and writing while closing or opening the port.
• Fix a double open bug on OSX that would cause opening and closing ports repetitively to error.
• Fix a 100% cpu and possible hang bug when ports were disconnected on windows.
• Fix a memory leak on windows
• Upgraded to nan-2.2.1 for memory leak fixes and node 6 support (still not supported)

• Code cleanup due to moving to eslint internally
• Bugfixes around JS handling of file descriptors

• Remove deprecated BuildCommDCB for windows support
• Cleanup callback handling

• Add 5.x build to matrix, thanks @deadprogram
• Re add nmpignore, thanks @rwaldron
• Swap to upstream version of node-pre-gyp-github

• Fix linux port listing crash since 2.0.3 refactor, thanks @monkbroc

• Upgrade to NAN2 to support Node 4+. Technically not api breaking, though NAN2 requires gcc 4.8 which for Pi Wheezy users at the very least, would be breaking. For those affected users looking to utilize serialport 2.x.x and Node 4 see https://github.com/fivdi/onoff/wiki/Node.js-v4-and-native-addons

• El Capitan Support, thanks @tmpvar

• Cleanup minor Unix gcc warnings, Thanks @rwaldron

• Fix heap corruption issue affecting windows users since 2.0.0, thanks @kunalspathak

• Move node-pre-gyp binaries away from Amazon S3 to Github Releases page
• Fix for missing node-pre-gyp binaries, especially for windows users, since the 2.0.0 refactor which forced windows users to build from source -- generally failing due to lack of dependencies
• Unix port listing moved away from udev which was not available on all platforms, to whitelisting ttyS ttyACM ttyUSB ttyAMA devices, see #610
