Hello all,

This is a voting thread for Apache Libcloud 0.6.1 release (r1198753).

Release artifacts can be found at http://people.apache.org/~tomaz/libcloud/

The only difference between 0.6.0 and 0.6.1 is that this release includes
some last-minute bug fixes in the CloudStack compute driver (some of them
were reported by user "gigimon" on Github, thanks!).

This release includes many improvements and new drivers, but the most
important thing is a brand new DNS API.

DNS API allows users to manage DNS service provided by many different
providers. This release includes a driver for Linode DNS (
http://www.linode.com/features.cfm), Zerigo DNS (http://www.zerigo.com/)
and Rackspace Cloud DNS (
http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/cloud_hosting_products/dns/). In the future
we also plan to expand it (hopefully with your help) and add new drivers
for providers such as Amazon and others.

Other notable changes, bug-fixes and improvements:

Documentation

- New documentation which is available at http://libcloud.apache.org/docs/

General

- SSL certificate validation is now enabled by default. If no CA
certificate files are found on startup, an exception is thrown.

Compute

- new driver for Ninefold.com
- support for OpenStack 1.1 API and many other improvements in the
OpenStack driver
- support for deployment using an SSH key
- Amazon EC2 driver now supports deploy functionality using an SSH key

Storage

- new driver for Google storage (http://code.google.com/apis/storage/)
- new driver for Ninefold.com storage (http://ninefold.com/cloud-storage/)

This release will probably also be the last release in the 0.x series and
the next release will be 1.0.

Please test the release and post your votes.
