On behalf of the Beaker development team, I'm pleased to announce that Beaker 20.0 is now available from the Beaker web site [1]. Thanks to everyone who contributed patches and bug reports for this release.
In Beaker 20 we have implemented the "system pools" feature. On top of that, it is now also possible to set a system to use the access policy defined on a pool. The aim is to make it easy to apply the same access policy across a large number of systems.
The other significant feature in Beaker 20 is support for configuring the network boot loader on a per-recipe basis. This lets Beaker automatically select a supported boot loader depending on the distro being provisioned, and for users to select a different boot loader in their recipes.
There are also plenty of other minor enhancements and fixes. As usual, the release notes [2] have all the details.
The detailed list of all changes made since Beaker 19.3 is also available [3].
