Dear Rudder community,
We are very proud to announce that we have just released a new version:
Rudder 2.8.0 "Patrol boat".
Major new features include:
* Configuration for change messages and change requests (validation
workflow) can now be done inside the web interface (Administration
-> Settings)
* Relay servers are now fully operational, and a simple process has
been put into place to make a regular node into a relay for
promises, reports and inventories. See
http://www.rudder-project.org/rudder-doc-2.8/rudder-doc.html#relay-servers.
* HTTP/S is now enabled and configured by default (using a self-signed
certificate)
* Change Requests (validation workflow) can now be managed through
REST API. See
http://www.rudder-project.org/rudder-api-doc/#api-Change_Requests.
* Significant performance improvements (up to 30% speed increase) on
displaying pages with reports in the web interface ("Rules" and
"Node details" pages)
* The rudder-agent now uses CFEngine 3.5
* Android system is now supported in all Techniques
* Directive details display has been improved, so you can focus on
configuration settings
The ChangeLog is available here:
http://www.rudder-project.org/foswiki/bin/view/System/Documentation:ChangeLog28
This version of Rudder is a final release. We have tested it thoroughly
and believe it to be free of any major bugs.However, this branch is not
marked "stable", since it still has to be proven reliable on production
systems over a period of several months. The current "stable" release is
2.6.*.
As always, check out

We look forward to your feedback, be it comments on this list, questions
on Twitter (@RudderProject) or on IRC (#rudder
<http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=rudder> on Freenode) , bug
reports or feature requests (or of course GitHub pull requests).
Wishing you a pleasant day
