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
