I am pleased to announce the release of netcf 0.1.0.

With this release, both the API and XML schema for describing interfaces
are stable, and from now on API and schema changes will only be done in
a backwards-compatible manner.

Since the last preliminary release, 0.0.2, many things have changed, in
particular the API and XML schema; lots of very valuable feedback was
received, most notably from Jonas Eriksson, Laine Stump, Daniel
Veillard, and Dan Berrange.

On a functional level, the following was added (see the NEWS file for a
detailed list):

      * MII or ARP monitoring of bonds
      * VLAN interfaces as toplevel interfaces and as slaves in a bridge
      * addresses on toplevel interfaces are optional
      * cleanly bring bridges up/down

Tarball:          https://fedorahosted.org/released/netcf/netcf-0.1.0.tar.gz
GPG signature[1]: https://fedorahosted.org/released/netcf/netcf-0.1.0.tar.gz.sig

RPM's for Fedora and EPEL are making their way through the build systems
and will be available shortly from the usual repos.

[1] To verify the signature, first download both the .sig file and the
corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify netcf-0.1.0.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys FC6E8A22

and rerun the `gpg --verify' command.
