Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly. Here are the release notes from version 121.
Network Configuration Rollback ------------------------------
NetworkManager now has support in its API for detecting whether a network configuration change broke connectivity to the system. Marius did work so that Cockpit can detect this and have NetworkManager rollback the changes that would have caused a remote admin to be disconnected from the system.
This is similar to how a Linux desktop asks you to click in a dialog if you accept the new display configuration. Except in the networking case we can test the connectivity automatically.

Debugging info for Javascript and CSS -------------------------------------
Cockpit now ships proper Javascript and CSS debugging "map" files in its cockpit-debuginfo packages. These make it easier to troubleshoot issues and develop code that runs in Cockpit.

Debian Branding ---------------
Cockpit now shows proper branding when running on Debian, and uses the logo installed on the system on its login screen.
