⏱️ As real-time clocks are becoming first-class citizens in #ZephyrRTOS, it's really cool to see that @adafruit's Data Logger Shield is now supported, courtesy of @brixmeister https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/boards/shields/adafruit_data_logger/doc/index.html

📶 Support for Bluetooth 5.4 #PAwR (Periodic Advertising with Responses) has been added! Think one-to-many, bi-directional, low-power BLE communications /cc @carles
💾 The new retention subsystem allows to manage data that must be retained while the device is powered.
