qcow2 version woes
by Mike Ruckman
Fellow cloudies,
The recent builds of our images are v3 qcow2 (also known as qcow3). This
presents a problem for our testing, since the openstack instances we
have access to don't support v3, only v2. The only difference between v2
and v3 are some performance enhancements - so the question is, should we
produce v2 images instead of v3 for easier testing?
This would require us to request a tweak from releng to get the correct
format, but would stop us from having to use a workaround [0] to test
(and I worry about testing a converted image - because then we rely on
"well, it *should* be the same" for our test results).
Thoughts?
[0] qemu-img amend -f qcow2 -o compat=0.10 <image.qcow2>

ANNOUNCE: Oz 0.13.0 release
by Chris Lalancette
All,
I'm pleased to announce release 0.13.0 of Oz. Oz is a program
for doing automated installation of guest operating systems with
limited input from the user. Release 0.13.0 is a bugfix and feature
release for Oz. Some of the highlights between Oz 0.12.0 and 0.13.0
are:
- For Fedora, if the user specifies a version, but that isn't
supported yet, try the last supported version (in this case), as that
will often work.
- Fix a regression where we forgot to force the qcow2 image type
- Allow installs that use more than one installation device
- Add support for RHEL 6.5
- Rename OEL-6 to OL-6
- Add support for Ubuntu 14.04
- Add Windows 8.1 support
- Add CentOS-7 support
- Add the ability to specify kernel parameters in the TDL
- Make sure to remove dhcp leases from guests after the install
- Fix support for FreeBSD
- Add in support for TDL "precommands"; these are commands that are
run *before* package installation
- Fix up file locking
- Add support for RHEL 5.11
- Remove Ubuntu ssh keys at the end of installation
- Add support for Ubuntu 14.10
- Add support for XInclude, for merging various TDLs together
- Add Fedora 21 support
- Add support for ppc64 and ppc64le
A tarball and zipfile of this release is available on the Github
releases page: https://github.com/clalancette/oz/releases . Packages
for Fedora-20, Fedora-21, Fedora-22, EPEL-6, and EPEL-7 have been
built in Koji and will eventually make their way to stable.
Instructions on how to get and
use Oz are available at http://github.com/clalancette/oz/wiki .
If you have questions or comments about Oz, please feel free to
contact me at clalancette at gmail.com, or open up an issue on the
github page: http://github.com/clalancette/oz/issues .
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release through bug reports,
patches, and suggestions for improvement.

[Needs action] Vagrant images on prerelease page
by David Gay
Greetings.
If we want the vagrant images to be listed on the prerelease page, the web team needs some text to put with them, like we do for the other images. I pinged a few vagrant-connected folks in IRC, but it seems they're not around. Assuming we *do* want these images listed, can someone with knowledge of them produce some sort of text to send to the web team?

TC8 AMIs, and other good news
by David Gay
Attention, civilians:
I have attached for you a list of standard AMIs for F22 Alpha TC8. Test away.
Also, this will hopefully be one of the last times I need to manually write these down and email them to you. At long last, the latest AMIs should soon appear on the releng-dash[1], under Cloud Images. When a successful image is built, the AMI ID and other info will be listed there, similar to the other sections. The dash will soon load faster, to boot[2]. Of course, you'll still be able to find the AMI IDs in their corresponding fedmsgs, as well.
Finally, I resolved a problem with Ansible (my mistake) that was causing our automatic TC builds to fail. Things should now be working as normal. Thanks to threebean for notifying me of the error.
