+# Release Notes
+
+## Version:
+
+PSTI7687
+
+## Release Date:
+
+Dec 3, 2019
+
+## Supported silicon:
+
+The STM is designed to be BIOS, platform, and operating system agnostic.
+It has been tested on the Purism Librem 15v4 (Kabylake), Dell 990
+(Sandybridge with a non-coreboot BIOS), and Minnowboard Max (Atom).
+
+## Instructions:
+
+This folder serves as the location for the stm.bin file. The developer
+can use the default stm.bin provided or replace it with one that has
+been custom built. The coreboot build system will look here for the
+STM binary when the STM has been configured.
+
+The default STM requires a MSEG of 4MB. If a smaller MSEG is used
+then the STM has to be custom built. Also, if a larger MSEG is
+configured, then the STM has to be custom built to take advantage
+of the additional memory.
+
+For version changes, issues, etc see the git repository.
+
+## Toolchains:
+
+The STM can be built with either Microsoft Visual Studio or with CMAKE/GNU.
+
+## ABI:
+
+This document defines both the firmware interface and the operating system
+interface with the STM:
+
+SMI Transfer Monitor (STM) User Guide, August 2015
+
+The above document can be obtained from firmware.intel.com.
+
+The STM-PE interface is defined in the Readme.STMPE file found on
+the stmpe branch of review.coreboot.org/STM.
