> Hello everyone,
>
> The LXC team is pleased to announce the release of LXC 1.1!
>
> This new upstream release is the result of the work of over 80
> individual contributors.
>
> The highlights are:
>  - Introduction of checkpoint/restore support for containers through CRIU.
>    This allows to serialize the container running state to disk, for
>    live migration or for later local restoration of the container.
>
>  - Support for running systemd as the init system inside the container
>    was also greatly improved and should now work by default both for
>    privileged and unprivileged containers when combined with lxcfs and a
>    recent systemd.
>
>  - Init scripts have now all been updated to provide the same feature
>    set, which means that a lxcbr0 bridge with a DHCP and DNS server
>    (dnsmasq) is now the default for anyone using LXC. We currently provide
>    init scripts for systemd, sysvinit and upstart.
>
> Those are just highlights, there are a lot more new features and user
> experience improvements. For a full list, see:
> https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/news/
>
> The release tarball can be downloaded at:
> https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/downloads/
>
>
> This release will be supported until January 2016 or 2 months after the
> next LXC release, whichever comes last.
>
> We therefore still recommend that people using LXC in production
> environments where long term support is important stick to LXC 1.0 which
> is supported until April 2019 and receives frequent bugfix updates.
