Congrats and thanks to all involved.

Will there be a COPR build made available for Centos users, as per previous releases?

cheers

                    == SSSD 1.15.0 ===

The SSSD team is proud to announce the release of version 1.15.0 of
the System Security Services Daemon.

As always, the source is available from https://fedorahosted.org/sssd

RPM packages will be made available for Fedora shortly.

== Feedback ==
Please provide comments, bugs and other feedback via the sssd-devel
or sssd-users mailing lists:
    https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
    https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-users

== Highlights ==
* SSSD now allows the responders to be activated by the systemd service
  manager and exit when idle. This means the services line in sssd.conf is
  optional and the responders can be started on-demand, simplifying the sssd
  configuration. Please note that this change is backwards-compatible and
  the responders listed explicitly in sssd.conf's services line are managed
  by sssd in the same manner as in previous releases. Please refer to man
  sssd.conf(5) for more information
* The sudo provider is no longer disabled for configurations that do not
  explicitly include the sudo responder in the services list. In order to
  disable the sudo-related back end code that executes the periodic LDAP
  queries, set the sudo_provider to none explicitly
* The watchdog signal handler no longer uses signal-unsafe functions. This
  bug was causing a deadlock in case the watchdog was about to kill a
  stuck process
* A bug that prevented TLS to be set up correctly on systems where libldap
  links with GnuTLS was fixed
* The functionality to alter SSSD configuration through the D-Bus interface
  provided by the IFP responder was removed. This functionality was not used to
  the best of our knowledge, had no tests and prevented the InfoPipe responder
  from running as a non-privileged user.
* A bug that prevented statically-linked applications from using libnss_sss
  was fixed by removing dependency on -lpthreads from the libnss_sss library
  (please see https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20500 for
  an example on why linking with -lpthread from an NSS modules is problematic)
* Previously, SSSD did not ignore GPOs that were missing the
  gPCFunctionalityVersion attribute and failed the whole GPO
  processing. Starting with this version, the GPOs without the
  gPCFunctionalityVersion are skipped.

== Packaging Changes ==
* The Augeas development libraries are no longer required since the
  configuration manipulation interface was dropped from the InfoPipe responder
* The libsss_config.so internal library was removed as well due to removal
  of the InfoPipe config management
* In order to manage socket-activated or bus activated responders,
  each responder is now represented by a systemd service file
  (e.g. sssd-nss.service). All responders except InfoPipe, which is
  bus-activated, are also managed by a socket unit file (e.g. sssd-nss.socket)

== Documentation Changes ==
* The sssd-secrets responder gained a new option max_payload_size that
  allows the administrator to limit the maximum size of a secret
* A new option responder_idle_timeout was added to support idle termination
  of socket-activated responders
* The sssd-ad and sssd-ipa man pages now summarize differences between
  the generic Kerberos/LDAP back end and the specialized IPA/AD back ends
