+
+We are happy to present the new 1.10.8 and 1.10.9 releases of Apache Airflow.
+
+Airflow 1.10.8 contains 160 commits since 1.10.7 and includes 4 new features,
42 improvements, 36 bug fixes, and several doc changes.
+
+We released 1.10.9 on the same day as one of the Flask dependencies (Werkzeug)
released 1.0 which broke Airflow 1.10.8.
+
+**Details**:
+* **PyPI**:
[https://pypi.org/project/apache-airflow/1.10.9/](https://pypi.org/project/apache-airflow/1.10.9/)
+* **Docs**:
[https://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.9/](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.9/)
+* **Changelog (1.10.8)**:
[http://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.8/changelog.html#airflow-1-10-8-2020-01-07](http://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.8/changelog.html#airflow-1-10-8-2020-01-07)
+* **Changelog (1.10.9)**:
[http://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.9/changelog.html#airflow-1-10-9-2020-02-10](http://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.9/changelog.html#airflow-1-10-9-2020-02-10)
+
+Some of the noteworthy new features (user-facing) are:
+
+- [Add tags to DAGs and use it for filtering in the
UI](https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/6489)
+- [New Executor: DebugExecutor for Local debugging from your
IDE](http://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.9/executor/debug.html)
+- [Allow passing conf in "Add DAG Run"
view](https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/7281)
+- [Allow dags to run for future execution
dates](https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/7038)
+- [Dedicated page in documentation for all configs in
airflow.cfg](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/1.10.9/configurations-ref.html)
+
+### Add tags to DAGs and use it for filtering in the UI
+
+In order to filter DAGs (e.g by team), you can add tags in each dag. The
filter is saved in a cookie and can be reset by the reset button.
+
+For example:
+
+In your Dag file, pass a list of tags you want to add to DAG object:
+
+```python
+dag = DAG(
+ dag_id='example_dag_tag',
+ schedule_interval='0 0 * * *',
+ tags=['example']
+)
+```
+
+**Screenshot**:
+
+
+**Note**: This feature is only available for the RBAC UI (enabled using
`rbac=True` in `[webserver]` section in your `airflow.cfg`).
+
+
+## Special Note / Deprecations
+
+### Python 2
+Python 2 has reached end of its life on Jan 2020. Airflow Master no longer
supports Python 2.
+Airflow 1.10.* would be the last series to support Python 2.
+
+We strongly recommend users to use Python >= 3.6
+
+### Use Airflow RBAC UI
+Airflow 1.10.9 ships with 2 UIs, the default is non-RBAC Flask-admin based UI
and Flask-appbuilder based UI.
+
+The Flask-AppBuilder (FAB) based UI is allows Role-based Access Control and
has more advanced features compared to
+the legacy Flask-admin based UI. This UI can be enabled by setting `rbac=True`
in `[webserver]` section in your `airflow.cfg`.
+
+Flask-admin based UI is deprecated and new features won't be ported to it.
This UI will still be the default
+for 1.10.* series but would no longer be available from Airflow 2.0
