[Michael Engel <mengel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I am happy to announce that we released BlueChi v0.7.0 last week on GitHub 🎉

Releases to Fedora and EPEL will follow in the next few days.

Some highlights:

Breaking Changes:

   - D-Bus: Removed the Shutdown method from the D-Bus API (see GitHub issue 682)

   - D-Bus: Renamed the Manager interface to Controller (see GitHub issue 707)

   - Configuration: Changed the prefix of settings from Manager to Controller, e.g. ManagerHost to ControllerHost (see GitHub issue 705)

   - bluechictl: Removed monitor node-connection command (and replaced with a watch option for the status command, see GitHub issue 706)

New Features:

   - BlueChi offers an API to view the overall system status (for an example, see here)

   - Its possible to add and remove peers to pre-created monitors (for more info, see here)

   - TCP KeepAlive options and the flag to receive IP errors can be configured now

   - bluechictl provides a watch option to continuously view the status of nodes and/or units (see the Getting Started Guide)

Integration tests: Coverage is collected and accumulated while running the tests and compiled into an HTML report. The report for the v0.7.0 can be found here (coverage-artifacts-html).

A complete list of changes in v0.7.0 is available on the GitHub Release for v0.7.0.
