-----------------------------------
General
~~~~~~~
- Deprecate LazyList method of iteration over large paginated collections
and use a new, more efficient generator based approach which doesn't
require the iterator to be pre-exhausted and buffering all of the values
in memory.
Existing list_* methods which previously used LazyList class are
preserving the old behavior and new iterate_* methods which use a new
generator based approach have been added. (LIBCLOUD-254)
[Mahendra M]
- Replace old ENUM style provider constants and replace them with a string
version.
This change allows users to dynamically register new drivers using a new
set_driver method. (LIBCLOUD-255)
[Mahendra M]
- Allow user to explicitly specify which CA file is used for verifying
the server certificate by setting 'SSL_CERT_FILE' environment variable.
Note: When this variable is specified, the specified path is the only
CA file which is used to verifying the server certificate. (LIBCLOUD-283)
[Tomaz Muraus, Erinn Looney-Triggs]
- Add a common module (libcloud.common.xmlrpc) for handling XML-RPC
requests using Libcloud http layer.
Also refactor existing drivers which use xmlrpclib directly (VCL, Gandi,
Softlayer) to use this module.
This change allows drivers to support LIBCLOUD_DEBUG and SSL certificate
validation functionality. Previously they have bypassed Libcloud http
layer so this functionality was not available. (LIBCLOUD-288)

Compute
~~~~~~~
- Fix string interpolation bug in __repr__ methods in the IBM SCE driver.
(LIBCLOUD-242)
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Fix test failures which happened in Python 3.3 due to:
- hash randomization
- changes in xml.etree module
- changes in xmlrpc module
(LIBCLOUD-245)
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Improvements and additions in vCloud driver:
- Expose generic query method (ex_query)
- Provide functionality to get and set control access for vApps. This way
created vApps can be shared between users/groups or everyone.
(LIBCLOUD-251)
[Michal Galet]
- Update EC2 pricing data to reflect new, lower prices -
http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2012/10/new-ec2-second-generation-standard-instances-and-price-reductions-1.html
[Tomaz Muraus]

(LIBCLOUD-249)
[Dinesh Bhoopathy]
- Fix a bug where a numeric instead of a string value was used for the
content-length header in VCloud driver. (LIBCLOUD-256)
[Brian DeGeeter, Tomaz Muraus]
- Add a new driver for new Asia Pacific (Sydney) EC2 region.
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Add support for managing security groups to the OpenStack driver. This
patch adds the following extension methods:
- ex_list_security_groups, ex_get_node_security_groups methods
- ex_create_security_group, ex_delete_security_group
- ex_create_security_group_rule, ex_delete_security_group_rule
(LIBCLOUD-253)
[L. Schaub]
- Modify ElasticStack driver class to pass 'vnc auto' instead of
'vnc:ip auto' argument to the API when creating a server.
It looks like 'vnc:ip' has been replaced with 'vnc'.
[Rick Copeland, Tomaz Muraus]
- Add new EC2 instance type - High Storage Eight Extra Large Instance
(hs1.8xlarge).
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Map 'shutting-down' node state in EC2 driver to UNKNOWN. Previously
it was mapped to TERMINATED. (LIBCLOUD-280)
Note: This change is backward incompatible which means you need to update
your code if you rely on the old behavior.
[Tomaz Muraus, Marcin Kuzminski]
- Change _wait_until_running method so it supports waiting on multiple nodes
and make it public (wait_until_running). (LIBCLOUD-274)
[Nick Bailey]
- Add new EC2 instance type - High Memory Cluster Eight Extra Large.
(cr1.8xlarge).
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Add new driver for Abiquo provider - http://www.abiquo.com (LIBCLOUD-250).
[Jaume Devesa]
- Allow user to pass 'ex_blockdevicemappings' kwarg to the EC2 driver
'create_node' method. (LIBCLOUD-282)
[Joe Miller, Tomaz Muraus]
- Improve error handling in the Brightbox driver.
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Fix the ScriptDeployment step to work correctly if user provides a
relative path for the script argument. (LIBCLOUD-278)
[Jaume Devesa]
- Fix Softlayer driver and make sure all the code is up to date and works
with the latest version of the actual Softlayer deployment (v3).
(LIBCLOUD-287)
[Kevin McDonald]
- Update EC2 driver, m3 instance types are now available in all the regions
except Brazil.
Also update pricing to reflect new (lower) prices.
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Minor improvements in the HostVirtual driver and add new ex_get_node and
ex_build_node extension method. (LIBCLOUD-249)
[Dinesh Bhoopathy]
- Add ex_destroy_image method to IBM SCE driver. (LIBCLOUD-291)
[Perry Zou]
- Add the following new regions to the ElasticHosts driver: sjc-c, syd-v,
hkg-e. (LIBCLOUD-293)
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Fix create_node in OpenStack driver to work correctly if 'adminPass'
attribute is not present in the response.
[Gavin McCance, Tomaz Muraus]
- Allow users to filter images returned by the list_images method in the EC2
driver by providing ex_image_ids argument. (LIBCLOUD-294)
[Chris Psaltis, Joseph Hall]
- Add support for OpenNebula 3.8. (LIBCLOUD-295)
[Guillaume ZITTA]
- Add missing 'deletd' -> terminated mapping to OpenStack driver.

attribute is not present in the response. (LIBCLOUD-292)
[Gavin McCance, Tomaz Muraus]
Storage
~~~~~~~
- Add a new local storage driver.
(LIBCLOUD-252, LIBCLOUD-258, LIBCLOUD-265, LIBCLOUD-273)
[Mahendra M]
- Fix a bug which caused the connection to not be closed when using Python
2.6 and calling get_object on an object which doesn't exist in the S3
driver. (LIBCLOUD-257)
[John Carr]
- Add a new generator based method for listing / iterating over the
containers (iterate_containers). (LIBCLOUD-261)
[Mahendra M]
- Add ex_purge_object_from_cdn method to the CloudFiles driver.
(LIBCLOUD-267)
[Tomaz Muraus]
- Support for multipart uploads and other improvements in the S3 driver
so it can more easily be re-used with other implementations (e.g. Google
Storage, etc.).
Also default to a multipart upload when using upload_object_via_stream.
This methods is more efficient compared to old approach because it only
requires buffering a single multipart chunk (5 MB) in memory.
(LIBCLOUD-269)
[Mahendra M]
- Add new driver for Windows Azure Storage with support for block and page
blobs. (LIBCLOUD-80)
[Mahendra M]
