And we're back fast and furious with another Dashboard release ... 1.0.3
... this one so hot we skipped 1.0.2 altogether.

The 1.0.3 release is another maintenance release that fixes bugs and
issues with the 1.0.1 release.  We're planning a 1.1 release in the near
future that will add additional features (you can
see the Roadmap at http://projects.puppetlabs.com/versions/show/48)

http://puppetlabs.com/downloads/dashboard/puppet-dashboard-1.0.3.tgz

New installation instructions for both 0.25.x and 2.6.x are also
available in the README:

http://github.com/reductivelabs/puppet-dashboard/blob/master/README.markdown

You will need to also perform a database migration as part of the
upgrade - Rails applications use database migration to add new tables
and columns to the database.  In the Puppet Dashboard directory, for
example /usr/share/puppet-dashboard, do:

$ sudo RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate

You'll need to restart your webserver/server after this migration to
ensure everything is up-to-date.

Fixed in this release is:

v1.0.3
------
* MIGRATION: Added cache with node's latest report and success status to
improve performance.
* Added rake tasks to dump and restore the database, see README for details.
* Added database check to ensure it's running the latest schema.
* Added support for accepting Puppet 2.6 reports, with limited support
for displaying their contents.
* Fixed and improved the README documentation with much more complete
installation instructions.
* Fixed node categorization, added new categories to "Nodes" sidebar and
highlighting of errors.
* Fixed node failures causing them to be listed as failed forever.
* Fixed exceptions and messages shown if no items to display on groups,
classes and reports pages.
* Fixed styling of icons, warning sections, autocomplete, etc.
* Fixed chart rendering issues, including it being too wide to fit on
the screen.
* Fixed unintended dependencies on external Puppet and JSON gems.
* Fixed confusing headers for node listings shown as part of other pages.
* Improved reports by displaying logs sorted by severity level and
highlighting these accordingly.
* Improved performance of many pages by eliminating and optimizing
database queries.
* Improved performance by concatenating JavaScript and CSS files together.
* Removed unused checkboxes.
* Fixed exceptions on the node reports page.
* Fixed chart headers so they are shown only once.
* Fixed chart formatting errors.
* Fixed homepage warning message boxes to look like errors.
* Fixed errors in documentation.
* Added userful menu bar.
* Added version number to menu bar and release notes page.
* Added missing "favicon.ico", the lack of which was filling logs with
errors.
* Removed unused "Register" and "Log in" links.

New packages are also available.  We'd welcome reviews and feedback into
our packaging processes too.
