The latest installment of the Pacemaker 1.0 stable series is now ready for general consumption.

In this release, we’ve made a number improvements to clone handling - particularly the way ordering constraints are processed - as well as some really nice improvements to the shell.

The next 1.0 release is anticipated to be in mid-March. We will be switching to a bi-monthly release schedule to begin focusing on development for the next stable series (more details soon). If you have feature requests, now is the time to voice them and/or provide patches :-)

Pre-built packages for Pacemaker and it’s immediate dependancies are currently building and will be available for openSUSE, SLES, Fedora, RHEL, CentOS from the ClusterLabs Build Area shortly.

Debian users should check for updates Martin’s repo over the coming days and Ubuntu fans can visit LaunchPad for 8.04 and 9.10 packages.

The source tarball is also available directly from Mercurial.

General installation instructions are available at from the ClusterLabs wiki.
