====
+Version 2.5.0 beta1
+-------------------
+
+*(unreleased)*
+
+- The default of the ``/2/instances/[instance_name]/rename`` RAPI
+ resource's ``ip_check`` parameter changed from ``True`` to ``False``
+ to match the underlying LUXI interface
+- When creating file-based instances via RAPI, the ``file_driver``
+ parameter no longer defaults to ``loop`` and must be specified
+
+
+Version 2.4.0 beta1
+-------------------
+
+*(Released Fri, 14 Jan 2011)*
+
+User-visible
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Fixed timezone issues when formatting timestamps
+- Added support for node groups, available via ``gnt-group`` and other
+ commands
+- Added out-of-band framework and management, see :doc:`design
+ document <design-oob>`
+- Removed support for roman numbers from ``gnt-node list`` and
+ ``gnt-instance list``.
+- Allowed modification of master network interface via ``gnt-cluster
+ modify --master-netdev``
+- Accept offline secondaries while shutting down instance disks
+- Added ``blockdev_prefix`` parameter to Xen PVM and HVM hypervisors
+- Added support for multiple LVM volume groups
+- Avoid sorting nodes for ``gnt-node list`` if specific nodes are
+ requested
+- Added commands to list available fields:
+
+ - ``gnt-node list-fields``
+ - ``gnt-group list-fields``
+ - ``gnt-instance list-fields``
+
+- Updated documentation and man pages
+
+Integration
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Moved ``rapi_users`` file into separate directory, now named
+ ``…/ganeti/rapi/users``, ``cfgupgrade`` moves the file and creates a
+ symlink
+- Added new tool for running commands on many machines,
+ ``tools/ganeti-listrunner``
+- Implemented more verbose result in ``OpInstanceConsole`` opcode, also
+ improving the ``gnt-instance console`` output
+- Allowed customisation of disk index separator at ``configure`` time
+- Export node group allocation policy to :doc:`iallocator <iallocator>`
+- Added support for non-partitioned md disks in ``lvmstrap``
+- Added script to gracefully power off KVM instances
+- Split ``utils`` module into smaller parts
+- Changed query operations to return more detailed information, e.g.
+ whether an information is unavailable due to an offline node. To use
+ this new functionality, the LUXI call ``Query`` must be used. Field
+ information is now stored by the master daemon and can be retrieved
+ using ``QueryFields``. Instances, nodes and groups can also be queried
+ using the new opcodes ``OpQuery`` and ``OpQueryFields`` (not yet
+ exposed via RAPI). The following commands make use of this
+ infrastructure change:
+
+ - ``gnt-group list``
+ - ``gnt-group list-fields``
+ - ``gnt-node list``
+ - ``gnt-node list-fields``
+ - ``gnt-instance list``
+ - ``gnt-instance list-fields``
+ - ``gnt-debug locks``
+
+Remote API
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- New RAPI resources (see :doc:`rapi`):
+
+ - ``/2/modify``
+ - ``/2/groups``
+ - ``/2/groups/[group_name]``
+ - ``/2/groups/[group_name]/assign-nodes``
+ - ``/2/groups/[group_name]/modify``
+ - ``/2/groups/[group_name]/rename``
+ - ``/2/instances/[instance_name]/disk/[disk_index]/grow``
+
+- RAPI changes:
+
+ - Implemented ``no_install`` for instance creation
+ - Implemented OS parameters for instance reinstallation, allowing
+ use of special settings on reinstallation (e.g. for preserving data)
+
+Misc
+~~~~
