I have a write up of what's new in Cobbler/Koan 0.9/1.0 here:

https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/WhatsNewInOhNine

Comments welcome, and feel free to play with git if you like. I will be doing a test release likely this week (Friday?) with a source RPM, though you don't have to wait if you want to have at it. It's been a while coming, but this is a big release. It's probably time to stop and push new things into the next release when possible.

Of possible interest to several folks: I had to (temporarily) remove the "--autonet" code in koan today (this is a feature intended to ease usage of --replace-self in DHCP-less environments), because of errors it was raising in Python 2.3 regarding some bit shifting and so forth. As I wasn't too familiar with the code and I don't have sufficient cycles to test it, it's out for now, but obviously we don't want to keep it that way if people need it. I will accept patches to get it cleaned up and added back -- though I'm not sure it worked on EL4 in the past. For patches, ideally it would not rely on direct parsing of commands and could get moved out to another file. Koan is getting big enough now to use some cleanup in general so I'll try to be doing some of that. Also of interest -- If you were asking about it, I believe I lost your email, but Xen Fullvirt in koan works again as I corrected some errors that kept it going into paravirt mode. Testing welcome.

As indicated on the above Wiki page, there aren't too many features that are left to add. We're getting close! Thanks for everyone who has been providing testing so far, ideas, bug reports, and hanging out here and on IRC. You are much appreciated and I could not do this without you. Thanks!
