+Version 2.0.3
+  - Added “--ignore-size” to the “gnt-instance activate-disks” command
+    to allow using the pre-2.0.2 behaviour in activation, if any
+    existing instances have mismatched disk sizes in the configuration
+  - Added “gnt-cluster repair-disk-sizes” command to check and update
+    any configuration mismatches for disk sizes
+  - Added “gnt-master cluste-failover --no-voting” to allow master
+    failover to work on two-node clusters
+  - Fixed the ‘--net’ option of “gnt-backup import”, which was unusable
+  - Fixed detection of OS script errors in “gnt-backup export”
+  - Fixed exit code of “gnt-backup export”
+
+Version 2.0.2
+  - Added experimental support for stripped logical volumes; this should
+    enhance performance but comes with a higher complexity in the block
+    device handling; stripping is only enabled when passing
+    --with-lvm-stripecount=N to configure, but codepaths are affected
+    even in the non-stripped mode
+  - Improved resiliency against transient failures at the end of DRBD
+    resyncs, and in general of DRBD resync checks
+  - Fixed a couple of issues with exports and snapshot errors
+  - Fixed a couple of issues in instance listing
+  - Added display of the disk size in “gnt-instance info”
+  - Fixed checking for valid OSes in instance creation
+  - Fixed handling of the ‘vcpus’ parameter in instance listing and in
+    general of invalid parameters
+  - Fixed http server library, and thus RAPI, to handle invalid
+    username/password combinations correctly; this means that now they
+    report unauthorized for queries too, not only for modifications,
+    allowing earlier detect of configuration problems
+  - Added a new ‘role’ node list field, equivalent to the master/master
+    candidate/drained/offline flags combinations
+  - Fixed cluster modify and changes of candidate pool size
+  - Fixed cluster verify error messages for wrong files on regular nodes
+  - Fixed a couple of issues with node demotion from master candidate
+    role
+  - Fixed node readd issues
+  - Added non-interactive mode for “ganeti-masterd --no-voting” startup
+  - Added a new ‘--no-voting’ option for masterfailover to fix failover
+    on two-nodes clusters when the former master node is unreachable
+  - Added instance reinstall over RAPI
+
+Version 2.0.1
+  - added -H/-B startup parameters to gnt-instance, which will allow
+    re-adding the start in single-user option (regression from 1.2)
+  - the watcher writes the instance status to a file, to allow
+    monitoring to report the instance status (from the master) based on
+    cached results of the watcher's queries; while this can get stale if
+    the watcher is being locked due to other work on the cluster, this
+    is still an improvement
+  - the watcher now also restarts the node daemon and the rapi daemon if
+    they died
+  - fixed the watcher to handle full and drained queue cases
+  - hooks export more instance data in the environment, which helps if
+    hook scripts need to take action based on the instance's properties
+    (no longer need to query back into ganeti)
+  - instance failovers when the instance is stopped do not check for
+    free RAM, so that failing over a stopped instance is possible in low
+    memory situations
+  - rapi uses queries for tags instead of jobs (for less job traffic),
+    and for cluster tags it won't talk to masterd at all but read them
+    from ssconf
+  - a couple of error handling fixes in RAPI
+  - drbd handling: improved the error handling of inconsistent disks
+    after resync to reduce the frequency of "there are some degraded
+    disks for this instance" message
+  - fixed a bug in live migration when DRBD doesn't want to reconnect
+    (the error handling path called a wrong function name)
+
+Version 2.0.0 final
+  - no changes from rc5
+
+Version 2.0 release candidate 5
+  - fix a couple of bugs (validation, argument checks)
+  - fix gnt-cluster getmaster on non-master nodes (regression)
+  - some small improvements to RAPI and IAllocator
+  - make watcher automatically start the master daemon if down
+
+Version 2.0 release candidate 4
+  - change the OS list to not require locks; this helps with big
+    clusters
+  - fix gnt-cluster verify and gnt-cluster verify-disks when the volume
+    group is broken
+  - “gnt-instance info”, without any arguments, doesn't run for all
+    instances anymore; either pass ‘--all’ or pass the desired
+    instances; this helps against mistakes on big clusters where listing
+    the information for all instances takes a long time
+  - miscellaneous doc and man pages fixes
+
+Version 2.0 release candidate 3
+  - Change the internal locking model of some gnt-node commands, in
+    order to reduce contention (and blocking of master daemon) when
+    batching many creation/reinstall jobs
+  - Fixes to Xen soft reboot
+  - No longer build documentation at 'make' time, instead distribute it
+    in the archive, in order to reduce the need for the whole
+    docbook/rst toolchains
+
+Version 2.0 release candidate 2
+  - Now the cfgupgrade scripts works and can upgrade 1.2.7 clusters to
+    2.0
+  - Fix watcher startup sequence, improves the behaviour of busy
+    clusters
+  - Some other fixes in cluster verify, replace-disks, gnt-instance add,
+    gnt-cluster queue, KVM VNC bind address and other places
+  - Some documentation fixes and updates
+
 Version 2.0 release candidate 1
   - More documentation updates, now all docs should be more-or-less
     up-to-date
