Thanks all for your participation towards 4.11.0.0 RC1.

We've managed to discover and fix about 10 blocker fixes, I'll close RC1 voting 
now and cut RC2 shortly.

I found and fixed an issue in cloudstack-agent logrotate.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-10255
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2429

IMHO it's feasible to include it in RC2.
As only the maven build is impacted by the change,
I see little risk.

Regards,
Frank
