Hello All,

Cloud-init release 23.3 is now available at:
https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/releases/tag/23.3

The 23.3 release:
 * spanned about 3 months
 * had 29 contributors
 * fixed 9 Launchpad issues

Highlights:
 - Remove python deprecated crypt dependency in favor of
   passlib.hash.bcrypt where present. crypt was used by by NetBSD and
   Azure datasource. Plan is to eventually deprecate passlib dependency too.
 - network: support busybox micro DHCP client (udhcpc) alternative to
   deprecated isc-dhcp-client.
 - Clouds:
   - Ensure Akamai(and Linode) datasource included in default discovery
   - Ec2: support decoding double base64 encoded user-data
   - GCE: improve fallback nic selection ens4 over eth0 as primary/default
NIC
 - Distributions:
     - debian/ubuntu: no longer use localectl to set keymap (LP: #2030788)
     - systemd v253++: cloud-init status --wait won't block on spawned
daemons
     - FreeBSD: Ephemeral networking fixes for BSD since /run is preserved
     - FreeBSD introduce ds-identify for early datasource detection
 - Modules:
     - users: support doas/opendoas rules as alternative to sudo
     - PEP 668: pip-installed ansible to support break-system-packages
installs
 - tooling: New file /run/cloud-init/combined-cloud-config.json to read all
      merged user-data/config without invoking python.


Thank you for your contributions,
The cloud-init team
