BaiBLN 3.0.12 - New software for Nova 846 has been released!

New BaiBLN 3.0.12 software for Nova 846 has been released. This version is a major milestone for us which merges the Layer 2 (MAC) code which is now shared across multiple 4G radio platforms (Qualcomm and NXP-based hardware). Any updates going forward which are related to L2 and above code will now apply to all platforms.
