+ * The DiskImage module can now make bootable images using grub.
+ * Add a ChrootTarball chroot type, for using pre-built tarballs
+ as chroots. Thanks, Ben Boeckel.
+ * HostName: Improve domain extraction code.
+ * Added Mount.fstabbed property to generate /etc/fstab to replicate
+ current mounts.
+ * HostName: Improve domain extraction code.
+ * Add File.basedOn. Thanks, Per Olofsson.
+ * Changed how the operating system is provided to Chroot (API change).
+ Where before debootstrapped and bootstrapped took a System parameter,
+ the os property should now be added to the Chroot.
+ * Follow-on change to Systemd.container, which now takes a System parameter.
+ * Generalized Property.check so it can be used with Propellor actions as
+ well as IO actions.
+ * Hostname.sane and Hostname.setTo can now safely be used as a property
+ of a chroot, and won't affect the hostname of the host system."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+ * Added Propellor.Property.Rsync.
+ * Convert Info to use Data.Dynamic, so properties can export and consume
+ info of any type that is Typeable and a Monoid, including data types
+ private to a module. (API change)
+ Thanks to Joachim Breitner for the idea.
+ * Improve propellor wrapper to better handle installation cloning
+ the public propellor repo, by setting that repo to be upstream,
+ so propellor doesnt try to push to a read-only repo.
+ * Added DebianMirror module, contributed by Félix Sipma.
+ * Some hlint cleanups.
+ Thanks, Mario Lang
+ * Added Propellor.Property.Unbound for the caching DNS server.
+ Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * Added PTR to Dns.Record. While this is ignored by
+ Propellor.Property.Dns for now, since reverse DNS setup is not
+ implemented there yet, it can be used in other places, eg Unbound.
+ Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * PrivData converted to newtype (API change).
+ * Stopped stripping trailing newlines when setting PrivData;
+ this was previously done to avoid mistakes when pasting eg passwords
+ with an unwanted newline. Instead, PrivData consumers should use either
+ privDataLines or privDataVal, to extract respectively lines or a
+ value (without internal newlines) from PrivData.
+ * Allow storing arbitrary ByteStrings in PrivData, extracted using
+ privDataByteString.
+ * Added Aiccu module, contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
+ * Added --rm-key."""]] \ No newline at end of file

+ * Privdata that uses HostContext inside a container will now have the
+ name of the container as its context, rather than the name of
+ the host(s) where the container is used. This allows eg, having different
+ passwords for a user in different containers. Note that previously,

+ * Added basic Uwsgi module, maintained by Félix Sipma.
+ * Add Apt.hasForeignArch. Thanks, Per Olofsson.
+ * Improved documentation, particularly of the Propellor module.
+ * The Propellor module no longer exports many of the things it used to,
+ being now focused on only what's needed to write config.hs.
+ Use Propellor.Base to get all the things exported by Propellor before.
+ (API change)
+ * Some renaming of instance methods, and moving of functions to more
+ appropriate modules. (API change)
+ * Added File.isSymlinkedTo. Thanks, Per Olofsson.
+ * fileProperty, and properties derived from it now write the new
+ file content via origfile.propellor-new~, instead of to a randomly named
+ temp file. This allows them to clean up any temp file that may have
+ been left by an interrupted run of propellor.
+ * Added Propellor.Property.Spin, which can be used to make a host be a
+ controller of other hosts, which will automatically spin them each time
+ propellor is run.
+ * Ssh.keyImported is replaced with Ssh.userKeys. (API change)
+ The new property only gets the private key from the privdata; the
+ public key is provided as a parameter, and so is available as
+ Info that other properties can use.
+ * Ssh.keyImported' is renamed to Ssh.userKeyAt, and also changed
+ to only import the private key from the privdata. (API change)
+ * While Ssh.keyImported and Ssh.keyImported' avoided updating existing
+ keys, the new Ssh.userKeys and Ssh.userKeyAt properties will
+ always update out of date key files.
+ * Ssh.pubKey renamed to Ssh.hostPubKey. (API change)
+ * Added --unset-unused
+ * Fix typo: propigate → propagate. Thanks, Felix Gruber.
+ (A minor API change)
+ * Chroot: Converted to use a ChrootBootstrapper type class, so
+ other ways to bootstrap chroots can easily be added in separate
+ modules. (API change)"""]] \ No newline at end of file
