Hi all,

We have released Ansible 1.8.0, which adds some exciting new features and
modules, as well as many enhancements to cloud modules and other various
bug fixes:

* Fact caching support, pluggable, initially supports Redis (DOCS pending)
* The new omit value can be used to leave off a parameter when not set,
like so module_name: a=1 b={{ c | default(omit) }}, would not pass value
for b (not even an empty value) if c was not set.
* no_log parameter now surpressess data from callbacks/output as well as
syslog
* ansible-galaxy install -f requirements.yml allows advanced options and
installs from non-galaxy SCM sources and tarballs.

For developers writing modules:

* The 'baby JSON' support in module responses, originally intended for
writing modules in bash, is removed as a feature to simplify logic, script
module remains available for running bash scripts.* async jobs started in
"fire & forget" mode can now be checked on at a later time.
* added ability to subcategorize modules for docs.ansible.com
* added ability for shipped modules to have aliases with symlinks
* added ability to deprecate older modules by starting with "_" and
including "deprecated: message why" in module docs

And much more! Be sure to check the CHANGELOG for a full list of changes
and fixes in this release.

This update is available via PyPi and releases.ansible.com now, and
packages for distros will be available as soon as possible.

Thanks!
