failures.
+- Support 'viridian' parameter in Xen HVM
+- Support DSA SSH keys in bootstrap
+- To simplify the work of packaging frameworks that want to add the needed users
+ and groups in a split-user setup themselves, at build time three files in
+ ``doc/users`` will be generated. The ``groups`` files contains, one per line,
+ the groups to be generated, the ``users`` file contains, one per line, the
+ users to be generated, optionally followed by their primary group, where
+ important. The ``groupmemberships`` file contains, one per line, additional
+ user-group membership relations that need to be established. The syntax of
+ these files will remain stable in all future versions.
