Hi,

So, the 2nd candidate for 1.3 is out!

New features include C/R of tasks-to-cgroups layout and native support for external bind mounts. The latter thing turned out to be absolutely necessary for LXC and Docker support, as mountpoints with external root is very typical to these containers. We also have many bugfixes, mainly in memory restore and mounpoints c/r.

I'd like to thank Google guys Filipe and Saied who joined us during this cycle for problem reports, patches, fruitful discussions and a quick but useful HOWTO about CRIU + Docker.

And also welcome Tycho and Serge from Canonical, hopefully we'll soon have full LXC and CRIU integration and tag the 1.3 :)

Full changelog is http://criu.org/Download/criu/1.3-rc2
Tarball with sources is http://download.openvz.org/criu/criu-1.3-rc2.tar.bz2
News and docs are still at http://criu.org and https://plus.google.com/+CriuOrg

Stay tuned and have fun!

Thanks,
Pavel
