Dear piler users,
I've been just released the latest stable version (1.1.0) of piler.
You may get it from the usual place, bitbucket.

This release features many bugfixes and improvements, so I recommend to
upgrade.
To do that, you should check the upgrade guide:
http://www.mailpiler.org/en/upgrade.html
The leap in the versioning is intentional. I've switched to the
semantic versioning,
using x.y.z (ie. MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH) numbers.
A quote from http://semver.org/ explains these 3 numbers:
MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible
manner, and
PATCH version when you make backwards-compatible bug fixes.
So when someone stumbles in a bug, I won't say anymore that upgrade to
the master branch
for the fix (though it's a possible way to resolve an issue), rather
I'll release 1.1.1,
1.1.2, etc. to fix the bug.
Upgrading from 1.1.0 to 1.1.x should be painless, usually a configure,
make, make install
not involving any database scheme changes, etc. hopefully making your
lives easier.
I also tried to upload a new OVA to bitbucket, however I've failed, it
always timed out,
so I've decided to put it dropbox (I know, it's a shame, but ...)

It's a ~800 MB OVA image, featuring a 1 TB root partition. Feel free to
extend or adjust it to
your needs. All the passwords are the same as before, see
http://www.mailpiler.org/en/vmware-image.html
for more (I'll update the download links and versions, soon).
Centos 7 is out, too. Piler is compatible with it, though there are
some packages you have
to get from other sources. I've found that rpmforge packages conflict
with the stock centos 7
packages. I've also updated the SSO docs on how to make single sign-on
to work with centos 7.
If you have any questions, just let me know. Also I invite you to shape
the future of piler.
If you have an idea, a feature request, etc. send them to me or better
to the list.
Best regards,
Janos
