Hello all,
  I'm happy to announce the release of cloud-init 0.7.2.
  The release notes and source download can be seen on launchpad [1].
  And also thanks to those contributed code, opened bugs, or otherwise
helped cloud-init during this release.

Notable Items:
- - many bug fixes
- - new merging functionality for cloud-config. This allows a 'part' of
  multipart
  input to specify how it should be merged into the existing config.
  The biggest user gain here is the ability to add a part that appends to
  a list (ie, runcmd) rather than overwriting it entirely.
- - setup docs to be available on read-the-docs
  https://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ (LP: #1093039)
- - support resizing partitions via growpart or parted (LP: #1136936)
  This allows taking advantage of partition 'update' in kernel versions
  3.8 or later. The end result is that no initramfs module is required in
  order to grow the root partition.
- - Better Red Hat / Fedora support
   - improvements for systemd with Fedora 18
   - /etc/hosts management

Other new function:
 - installation of puppet can be controlled in the puppet config module
   [Craig Tracey] (LP: #1090205)
 - support installation of omnibus installer for chef [Anatoliy Dobrosynets]
 - Allow 'sr0' (or sr[0-9]) to be specified without /dev/ as a source for
   mounts. [Vlastimil Holer]
 - allow config-drive-data to come from a CD device by more correctly
   filtering out partitions. (LP: #1100545)
 - support for resizing btrfs root filesystems [Blair Zajac]
 - make apt-get invoke 'dist-upgrade' rather than 'upgrade' for
   package_upgrade, and make the command configurable. (LP: #1164147)


Thanks.
Scott
