The ManageIQ development team is pleased to announce the availability of the Beta release of Capablanca.

As ManageIQ progresses toward its next milestone release, the development team is pleased to announce the availability of the alpha release of Capablanca.

Found a really great blog post, all about deploying ManageIQ within a VSphere environment written by Jason Gaudreau:

Reminder that the ManageIQ BoF at Red Hat Summit is today - Thursday, June 25.

Next week (June 23 - June 26) is Red Hat Summit, and we have quite the agenda put together for ManageIQ and CloudForms users.

We’re very happy to announce that ManageIQ Botvinnik is now generally available. This marks the first full release cycle for ManageIQ as an open source project. As mentioned in previous announcements, we name our releases alphabetically after chess world champions. For the “B” release, we selected Mikhail Botvinnik, a Soviet chess champion from the 1950’s. The “C” release cycle is named after Jose Raul Capablanca, a Cuban world chess champion from 1921-1927.

I’m happy to report that we will be having a birds-of-a-feather meetup (aka “BoF”) at Red Hat Summit on Thursday, June 25 at 4pm EDT. A BoF is an informal gathering of people who come together to discuss a particular topic, in this case ManageIQ. We would like to use this opportunity to share some of the community highlights from the previous year, as well as discuss the upcoming roadmap and Capablanca release cycle.

The fourth release candidate for Botvinnik is now available. Download from manageiq.org. This is (hopefully) the final release candidate before going GA later this week. Stand by! If you have issues, please report them at GitHub.

This is a quick reminder that the All About Botvinnik webinar starts at 8am PDT/11am EDT/15:00 UTC today (June 9). You can attend the webinar through our bluejeans.com link.

If you run git pull on your ManageIQ appliance to pull down updates, restart and find that you can’t login in the web UI as the buttons are unresponsive, it’s likely you’re running in production mode, some assets were added or changed and haven’t been precompiled.
