Highlighted new features:
  + accelerated mode: An enhanced fireball mode that requires zero 
    bootstrapping and fewer requirements plus adds capabilities 
    like sudo commands.
  + role defaults: Allows roles to define a set of variables at the 
    lowest priority. These variables can be overridden by any 
    other variable.
  + new /etc/ansible/facts.d allows JSON or INI-style facts to be 
    provided from the remote node, and supports executable fact 
    programs in this dir. Files must end in *.fact.
  + added the ability to make undefined template variables raise 
    errors (see ansible.cfg)
  + (DOCS PENDING) sudo: True/False and sudo_user: True/False can be 
    set at include and role level
  + added changed_when: (expression) which allows overriding whether
    a result is changed or not and can work with registered expressions
  + --extra-vars can now take a file as input, e.g., "-e @filename" 
    and can also be formatted as YAML
  + external inventory scripts may now return host variables in one 
    pass, which allows them to be much more efficient for large 
    numbers of hosts
  + if --forks exceeds the numbers of hosts, it will be automatically 
    reduced. Set forks to 0 and you get "as many forks as I have 
    hosts" out of the box.
  + enabled error_on_undefined_vars by default, which will make 
    errors in playbooks more obvious
  + role dependencies -- one role can now pull in another, with 
    parameters of its own.
  + added the ability to have tasks execute even during a check

1.2 "Right Now" -- June 10, 2013
Core Features:
* capability to set 'all_errors_fatal: True' in a playbook to force any error to stop execution versus
a whole group or serial block needing to fail
usable, without breaking the ability to override in ansible
* ability to use variables from {{ }} syntax in mainline playbooks, new 'when' conditional, as detailed
in documentation. Can disable old style replacements in ansible.cfg if so desired, but are still active
by default.
* can set ansible_ssh_private_key_file as an inventory variable (similar to ansible_ssh_host, etc)
* 'when' statement can be affixed to task includes to auto-affix the conditional to each task therein
* cosmetic: "*****" banners in ansible-playbook output are now constant width
* --limit can now be given a filename (--limit @filename) to constrain a run to a host list on disk
* failed playbook runs will create a retry file in /var/tmp/ansible usable with --limit
* roles allow easy arrangement of reusable tasks/handlers/files/templates
* pre_tasks and post_tasks allow for separating tasks into blocks where handlers will fire around them automatically
* "meta: flush_handler" task capability added for when you really need to force handlers to run

* added a log file for ansible/ansible-playbook, set 'log_path' in the configuration file or ANSIBLE_LOG_PATH in environment
* debug mode always outputs debug in playbooks, without needing to specify -v
* external inventory script added for Spacewalk / Red Hat Satellite servers
* It is now possible to feed JSON structures to --extra-vars. Pass in a JSON dictionary/hash to feed in complex data.

* more filters: ability to say {{ foo|success }} and {{ foo|failed }} and when: foo|success and when: foo|failed
* more filters: {{ path|basename }} and {{ path|dirname }}
* lookup plugins now use the basedir of the file they have included from, avoiding needs of ../../../ in places and
increasing the ease at which things can be reorganized.

0.8 "Cathedral" -- Oct 19, 2012
Highlighted Core Changes:
* fireball mode -- ansible can bootstrap a ephemeral 0mq (zeromq) daemon that runs as a given user and expires after X period of time. It is very fast.
* playbooks with errors now return 2 on failure. 1 indicates a more fatal syntax error. Similar for /usr/bin/ansible
* server side action code (template, etc) are now fully pluggable
* ability to write lookup plugins, like the code powering "with_fileglob" (see below)

* fix for inventory hosts at API level when hosts spec is a list and not a colon delimited string
* ansible-pull example now sets up logrotate for the ansible-pull cron job log
* negative host matching (!hosts) fixed for external inventory script usage

* when trying to async a module that is not a 'normal' asyncable module, ansible will now let you know
* ability to access inventory variables via 'hostvars' for hosts not yet included in any play, using on demand lookups
* merged ansible-plugins, ansible-resources, and ansible-docs into the main project
* you can set ANSIBLE_NOCOWS=1 if you want to disable cowsay if it is installed. Though no one should ever want to do this! Cows are great!
* you can set ANSIBLE_FORCECOLOR=1 to force color mode even when running without a TTY
* fatal errors are now properly colored red.
* skipped messages are now cyan, to differentiate them from unchanged messages.
* extensive documentation upgrades
* delegate_action to localhost (aka local_action) will always use the local connection type
Highlighted playbook changes:
* is_set is available for use inside of an only_if expression: is_set('ansible_eth0'). We intend to further upgrade this with a 'when'
keyword providing better options to 'only_if' in the next release. Also is_unset('ansible_eth0')
* playbooks can import playbooks in other directories and then be able to import tasks relative to them
* FILE($path) now allows access of contents of file in a path, very good for use with SSH keys
* similarly PIPE($command) will run a local command and return the results of executing this command
* if all hosts in a play fail, stop the playbook, rather than letting the console log spool on by
* only_if using register variables that are booleans now works in a boolean way like you'd expect

* ability to use with_fileglob to iterate over local file patterns
* templates now use Jinja2's 'trim_blocks=True' to avoid stray newlines, small changes to templates may
be required in rare cases.
Other playbook changes:
* to_yaml and from_yaml are available as Jinja2 filters
* $group and $group_names are now accessible in with_items
* where 'stdout' is provided a new 'stdout_lines' variable (type == list) is now generated and usable with with_items
* when local_action is used the transport is automatically overridden to the local type
* output on failed playbook commands is now nicely split for stderr/stdout and syntax errors
* if local_action is not used and delegate_to was 127.0.0.1 or localhost, use local connection regardless
* when running a playbook, and the statement has changed, prints 'changed:' now versus 'ok:' so it is obvious without colored mode

* --sudo-user now works with --extra-vars
* fix for multi_line strings with only_if
New Modules:
* ini_file module for manipulating INI files
* new LSB facts (release, distro, etc)

* a fail module is now available for causing errors, you might want to use it with only_if to fail in certain conditions
Other module Changes, Upgrades, and Fixes:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 31 17:26:44 UTC 2013 - lars@linux-schulserver.de
- update to 1.3.4:
Highlighted new features:
+ accelerated mode: An enhanced fireball mode that requires zero
bootstrapping and fewer requirements plus adds capabilities
like sudo commands.
+ role defaults: Allows roles to define a set of variables at the
lowest priority. These variables can be overridden by any
other variable.
+ new /etc/ansible/facts.d allows JSON or INI-style facts to be
provided from the remote node, and supports executable fact
programs in this dir. Files must end in *.fact.
+ added the ability to make undefined template variables raise
errors (see ansible.cfg)
+ (DOCS PENDING) sudo: True/False and sudo_user: True/False can be
set at include and role level
+ added changed_when: (expression) which allows overriding whether
a result is changed or not and can work with registered expressions
+ --extra-vars can now take a file as input, e.g., "-e @filename"
and can also be formatted as YAML
+ external inventory scripts may now return host variables in one
pass, which allows them to be much more efficient for large
numbers of hosts
+ if --forks exceeds the numbers of hosts, it will be automatically
reduced. Set forks to 0 and you get "as many forks as I have
hosts" out of the box.
+ enabled error_on_undefined_vars by default, which will make
errors in playbooks more obvious
+ role dependencies -- one role can now pull in another, with
parameters of its own.
+ added the ability to have tasks execute even during a check
run (always_run).
+ added the ability to set the maximum failure percentage for a
group of hosts.
...and a lot more information can be found at
/usr/share/doc/packages/ansible/CHANGELOG.md
- removed man3 man pages
- removed separate CHANGELOG.md source - now in upstream tarball
