I’d like to resolve some questions:

@Przemysław:
 - We can avoid that message by supplying --quiet.
 - Changelog is currently managed automatically by PBR so as soon as there is a 
release there will be a change log
 - I think #2 can be done along with #3

@Kamil:
 - The issue is that it’s not possible to release commands in this release 
because it will immediately make the CLI incompatible.For 7.0 there is a plan 
to get rid of the old CLI completely and replace it with Cliff-based one. I 
agree that people may forget the deprecation warning before 7.1 ISO is 
available but that is partially solvable by a change log. Besides, 
python-fuelclient-7.0 will be available on PyPi much earlier than 7.0 ISO is 
released.
 - ^ is basically the reason why we cannot use #4, because there will be 
nothing new to use, at least in the 6.1 ISO. Keeping both CLIs in the source 
tree will create more mess and will be terribly hard to test.
