[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-1.3.4
by Daniel Veillard 01 May '16

01 May '16

As planned, it's out ! I tagged the release in git and pushed the signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ I also pushed the corresponding libvirt-python release to ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/python/ This is a rather large release especially considering that it's only a bit over 3 weeks since 1.3.3 went out. The amount of changes related to documentation and portability (especially FreeBSD and old Linuxes/gcc) is larger than usual :-) . And as usual quite a lot of incremental improvements, internal refactoring of code and bug fixes !

[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.3.4
by Daniel Veillard 29 Apr '16

29 Apr '16

We are in freeze ! I tagged the release candidate 1 in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ that looks fine with my very limited testing, but that's likely not indicative of the actual stability :) https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt-project/ is rather positive though someone should look at a potential FreeBSD portability issue based on the report (or that could be that the Jenkins test need a bit of attention) Plan is to have RC2 on Friday and try to push 1.3.4 final from airport in Sunday (so there is a little bit of risk there). Please give it a try ! Thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-1.3.3
by Daniel Veillard 06 Apr '16

06 Apr '16

With a bit of delay the release is now out and git is open again, I tagged the release in head, and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ UI also tagged and pushed signed tarball and rpms for the python bindings for 1.3.3 at: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/python/ This is a rather large lreales with a lot of development and user visible features. The majority of the nearly 400 commits are incremental improvements (which may explain why stabilization for release took a little longuer than usual), but there is a decent amount of bug fixes too!

As suggested yesterday, I tagged RC1 in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ Seems to work for me, but please give it some testing ! I expect to have an rc2 on Friday, and do the final release on the week-end or on Monday if everything loks good, Please try it and report, thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

So as planned I pushed the release earlier today, it is tagged in git and signed tarball and rpms are at the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ I also built a libvirt-python 1.3.2 release which can be found at ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/python This is a relatively big release with around 375 commits done in the last month and a half. There are user visible improvement listed as features and a lot more improvements and refactoring under the hood.

[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.3.2
by Daniel Veillard 27 Feb '16

27 Feb '16

So as planned I tagged the rc1 in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ This seems to work for me with my minimal testing, but please give it a try especially for different architecture and systems. Next step would be to push rc2 on Friday and if all goes well push the final release on Monday or Tuesday next week. Please give it a try, thanks !

[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.3.1
by Daniel Veillard 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

As suggested this w.e., I just tagged the release candidate 1 in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ This works fine with my limited testing, but obviously more people need to give it some trial especially on other platforms. The output from CentOS CI is mostly green which is a good sign with just libvirt-daemon-rpm and virt-manager-test in the red, someone probably need to have a look before we release. The rc2 should come in 2 days on Thursday, and unless there is some blocker I plan to push 1.3.1 over the week-end, so please give it some testing ! Thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/
