[Swift] Swift 1.13.0 released
I'm please to announce that OpenStack Swift 1.13 has been released. This release has some important new features (highlighted below), and it also serves as a good checkpoint before Swift's final release in the Icehouse cycle. Launchpad page for this release: https://launchpad.net/swift/icehouse/1.13.0 Highlights from the Swift 1.13 changelog (https://github.com/openstack/swift/blob/master/CHANGELOG): * Account-level ACLs and ACL format v2 Accounts now have a new privileged header to represent ACLs or any other form of account-level access control. The value of the header is a JSON dictionary string to be interpreted by the auth system. A reference implementation is given in TempAuth. Please see the full docs at http://swift.openstack.org/overview_auth.html * Moved all DLO functionality into middleware The proxy will automatically insert the dlo middleware at an appropriate place in the pipeline the same way it does with the gatekeeper middleware. Clusters will still support DLOs after upgrade even with an old config file that doesn't mention dlo at all. * Remove python-swiftclient dependency Please read the full changelog for a full report of this release. As always, this release is considered production-ready, and deployers can upgrade to it with no client downtime in their cluster. I'd like to thank the following new contributors to Swift, each of whom contributed to the project for the first time during this release: - Luis de Bethencourt (luis@debethencourt.com) - Florent Flament (florent.flament-ext@cloudwatt.com) - David Moreau Simard (dmsimard@iweb.com) - Shane Wang (shane.wang@intel.com) Thank you to everyone who has contributed. --John
