in order to allow more experimental features to be released as
beta.

# Raspberry Pi4 bootloader EEPROM release notes
## 2020-02-27 rpi-eeprom-update & firmware
* Remove the dependency check for the vl805 utility. This is deprecated
and there is no 64-bit version. The file is still available in Github
for anyone who wants to continue using USE_FLASHROM or create their
own scripts.
* Add a stable firmware directory based on the latest beta release.
Stable should be interpreted as feature-freeze releases. In this
case the core network boot is stable enough for most scenarios
and this de-risks adding new more experimental features in the
beta folder.
## 2020-01-22 - vl805 00137ad
* Set the default/critical vl805 version to be 00137ad. This has the
same power savings as 0137ab but with fixes for USB webcams.

Before selecting a firmware release directory this script checks whether there
is a board revision specific variant e.g. critical-c03111. If present then the
board-revision specific version is used in preference.
