+The Developer Tools plugin currently contains two tools useful for developers
+of either GATE itself or plugins and applications.
+
+The `EDT Monitor' is useful when developing GUI code and will print a warning
+when any Swing component is updated from anywhere but the Event Dispatch
+Thread. Updating Swing components from the wrong thread can lead to unexpected
+behaviour, including the UI locking up, so any reported issues should be
+investigated. All issues are reported to the console rather than the message
+pane as updates to the message pane may not appear if the UI is locked.
+
+The `Show/Hide Resources' tool adds a new entry to the right-click menu of
+all resources allowing them to be hidden from the GUI. On it's own this is
+not particularly useful, but it also provides a Tool menu entry to show
+all hidden resources. This is useful for looking at PR instances created
+internally by other PRs etc.

+GATE now requires Java 7. If you are stuck on Java 6 then you will need to
+continue to use GATE 7.1.
+
+The Lucene specific implementation of the Information Retrieval plugin
+(Section~\ref{sec:misc-creole:ir}) has been moved out of the core and into
+the plugin. This means that Lucene is no longer a core dependency allowing
+individual plugins to specify any version of Lucene they may require.
+
 \rcSubsect{March 2014}
 
+A new plugin containing a number of developer orientated tools has been added
+to the core distribution. See Section~\ref{sec:misc-creole:dev-tools} for
+more details.
+
 Fixed a bug in the ANNIC query parser related to the escaping of reserved
 characters within feature values.
 
 Added a PR to access the TextRazor online annotation service.  See
 section~\ref{sec:misc-creole:textrazor} for details.
 
+Updated GATE to support Java 8.
