-propellor 1.0.0 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[!toggleable text="""
- * propellor --spin can now be used to update remote hosts, without
- any central git repository needed. The central git repository is
- still useful for running propellor from cron, but this simplifies
- getting started with propellor, and allows for more ad-hoc usage.
- * The git repo url, if any, is updated whenever propellor --spin is used.
- * Added prosody module, contributed by Félix Sipma.
- * Can be used to configure tor hidden services. Thanks, Félix Sipma.
- * When multiple gpg keys are added, ensure that the privdata file
- can be decrypted by all of them.
- * Convert GpgKeyId to newtype. (API change)
- * DigitalOcean.distroKernel property now reboots into the distribution
- kernel when necessary.
- * Avoid outputting color setting sequences when not run on a terminal.
- * Docker code simplified by using `docker exec`; needs docker 1.3.1.
- * Docker containers are now a separate data type, cannot be included
- in the main host list, and are instead passed to
- Docker.docked. (API change)
- * Added support for using debootstrap from propellor.
- * Propellor can now be used to provision chroots.
- * systemd-nspawn containers can now be managed by propellor, very similar
- to its handling of docker containers.
- * Debian package will be maintained by Gergely Nagy."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+propellor 1.1.0 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * --spin target --via relay causes propellor to bounce through an
+ intermediate relay host, which handles any necessary uploads
+ when provisioning the target host.
+ * --spin can be passed multiple hosts, and it will provision each host
+ in turn.
+ * Add --merge, to combine multiple --spin commits into a single, more useful
+ commit.
+ * Hostname parameters not containing dots are looked up in the DNS to
+ find the full hostname.
+ * propellor --spin can now deploy propellor to hosts that do not have
+ git, ghc, or apt-get. This is accomplished by uploading a fairly
+ portable precompiled tarball of propellor.
+ * Propellor.Property.OS contains properties that can be used to do a clean
+ reinstall of the OS of an existing host. This can be used, for example,
+ to do an in-place conversion from Fedora to Debian.
+ This is experimental; use with caution!
+ * Added group-related properties. Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * Added Git.barerepo. Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * Added Grub.installed and Grub.boots properties.
+ * New HostContext can be specified when a PrivData value varies per host.
+ * hasSomePassword and hasPassword now default to using HostContext.
+ To specify a different context, use hasSomePassword' and
+ hasPassword' (API change)
+ * hasSomePassword and hasPassword now make sure shadow passwords are enabled.
+ * cron.runPropellor now runs propellor, rather than using its Makefile.
+ This is more robust.
+ * propellor.debug can be set in the git config to enable more persistent
+ debugging output.
+ * Run apt-cache policy with LANG=C so it works on other locales.
+ * endAction can be used to register an action to run once propellor
+ has successfully run on a host."""]] \ No newline at end of file
