 ANN: NetworkManager 1.1.90 (1.2-beta1) released

 From: Lubomir Rintel 
 To: NetworkManager Discussions 
 Subject: ANN: NetworkManager 1.1.90 (1.2-beta1) released
 Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2016 16:35:33 +0100

 Hi,

 I'm pleased to announce the release of NetworkManager 1.1.90 (1.2-beta1)
 and the same version of nm-applet, nm-connection-editor and the VPN
 plugins.

 This is a first pre-release version of the next NetworkManager version,
 1.2.  It's been in development for over a year now and contains fair
 amount of new features, bug fixes and also some extensive internal
 changes.  There will be at least one pre-release before we'll do a 1.2
 stable release.

 At this point the code is feature complete and the essential
 functionality has been tested to work well. That said, there's a lot of
 testing to be done before we can do a stable release. We need your help
 with that!

 While it's not recommended to run the pre-release in production, we
 encourage you to test the new release and report any issues you
 encounter.

 If you are a maintainer of a Linux distribution or a tool that utilizes
 NetworkManager, you're even more encouraged to try the pre-release.
 NetworkManager 1.2 will be API and ABI compatible with NetworkManager
 1.0.x, series (with the exception of the editor that won't load old VPN
 plugins due to a symbol clash between libnm and legacy libnm-gtk).

 ...

 Thanks to everyone who contributed to the development of NetworkManager
 1.2 and especially those who send the bug reports. We need your help to
 make NetworkManager 1.2 the best and most robust NetworkManager release
 ever!

 Lubo

 NetworkManager-1.2
 Overview of changes since NetworkManager-1.0
 

 This is a new stable release of NetworkManager.  Notable changes
 include:

 • Added an option to enable use of random MAC addresses for Wi-Fi access
   point scanning (defaults to disabled).  Controlled with
   'wifi.mac-address-randomization' property (MAC_ADDRESS_RANDOMIZATION
   key in ifcfg files).
 • Wi-Fi scanning now utilizes wpa_supplicant's AP list.
 • Added support for Wi-Fi powersave, configured with POWERSAVE key in
   ifcfg files.
 • Added support for creation of more types of software devices: tun &
   tap, macvlan, vxlan and ip tunnels (ipip, gre, sit, ip6ip6 and ipip6).
 • The software devices (bond, bridge, vlan, team, ...) can now be
   stacked arbitrarily.  The nmcli interface for creating master-slave
   relationships has been significantly improved by the use of 'master'
   argument to all link types.
 • RFC7217 stable privacy addressing is now used by default to protect
   from address-based host tracking. The IPv6 addressing mode is
   configured with IPV6_ADDR_GEN_MODE key in ifcfg files.
 • Improved route management code to avoid clashes between conflicting
   routes in multiple connections.
 • Refactored platform code resulting in more robust interface to
   platform, less overhead and reduced memory footprint.
 • Improved interoperability with other network management tools.  The
   externally created software devices are not managed until they're
   activated.
 • The Device instances now exist for all software connections and the
   platform devices are now only created when the device is activated.
   This makes it possible for connections with device of same name not to
   clash unless they're activated concurrently.  The links are now not
   unnecessarily present unless the connection is active, avoiding
   pollution of the link namespace.
 • NetworkManager now correctly manages connectivity in namespace-based
   containers such as LXC and Docker.
 • Support for configuring ethernet Wake-On-Lan has been added.
 • Added LLDP listener functionality and related CLI client commands.
   Enabled via LLDP option in ifcfg files.
 • CLI secret agent has been extended with support for VPN secrets.
 • The command line client now utilizes colors for its output.
 • The command
