If nothing major is found in testing, these will become Cobbler/Koan 1.2 
in a few weeks, and we'll continue to maintain stable branches of those 
while starting a new devel branch.

We've incorporated a few new features between 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 that can 
use testing.

Namely, the aforementioned --kopts-post feature is very new so it would 
be nice to know if that works as intended for everyone across their distros.

Also, we've added the "getks" command to profiles and systems which can 
show the kickstart without having to visit hte Web URL.  In addition, 
I've improved the error message you get when you have templating 
problems to better explain what is going on and how users can fix this.  
The intent here is to reduce the amount of templating questions that 
posted to IRC, and so they don't just appear as normal scary tracebacks 
:)  So, testing of templating is welcome.  Note that 
$unreferenced_variables that were left silently before are now no longer 
left silently as Cheetah mentions the "errorCatcher" we were using 
before was for debug only.   So this should make things faster, and it's 
neccessary for the way the snippet code has been upgraded (to allow for 
nesting of snippets, etc).

We still have a unresolved bugzilla open on grubby and one of the 
options it uses, so the koan live CD is not happy when built against 
F9.  Cobbler buildiso will work in those cases though, so I'm still 
tracking that one.

If anybody else has any other questions, please ask, and as always, 
thanks very much for testing.   The templating code got a lot of testing 
in the last week or so and I think it will make for a much better 
release because of it.

Thanks!
