=========================================================
+* **Added the Event Timer Adapter Library.**
+
+ The Event Timer Adapter Library extends the event-based model by introducing
+ APIs that allow applications to arm/cancel event timers that generate
+ timer expiry events. This new type of event is scheduled by an event device
+ along with existing types of events.
