Sorry for the long delay on this. I asked Martin Pitt the other day to
put together a list of the major improvements to Cockpit this cycle...
and they are many!

Here's what he sent me:

Hello Steve,

the other day you asked me about summarizing the major cockpit improvements
since 165. How about this:

* FreeIPA integration:
  - Automatically set up Kerberos keytab for Cockpit web server, so
that single-sign on works without Cockpit login page
  - Cockpit's web server automatically gets and uses an IPA-generated
SSL certificate
  - Domain admins can administer the local machine with Cockpit
  - Respect centrally managed SSH known_hosts list

* On-demand installation of additional functionality such as NFS client
  support, realmd, PCP, VDO, or dnf-automatic.

* Networking: Add UI for firewalld

* Machines: Configure vCPUs, storage devices, and network interfaces

* Storage: Add support for LUKSv2 encrypted devices and enrolling to a
Clevis/Tang server

The indivial release notes at https://cockpit-project.org/blog/ have more
information (and sometimes screenshots and videos) about these, but I think the
above covers the most visible things. Please let me know if something is
unclear and needs to be refined.

Pitti
