+Version 2.6.1
+-------------
+
+*(Released Fri, 12 Oct 2012)*
+
+A small bugfix release.
+
+Fix double use of PRIORITY_OPT in gnt-node migrate, that would make the
+command unusable.
+
+Commands that issue many jobs don't fail anymore just because some jobs
+take so long that other jobs are archived.
+
+Failures during gnt-instance reinstall are reflected by the exit status.
+
+Issue 190 fixed. Check for DRBD in cluster verify is enabled only when
+DRBD is enabled.
+
+When always_failover is set, --allow-failover is not required in migrate
+commands anymore.
+
+bash_completion works even if extglob is disabled
+
+Fix bug with locks that made failover for RDB-based instances fail.
+
+Fix bug in non-mirrored instance allocation that would make Ganeti
+choose a random node instead of one based on the allocator metric.
+
+Support for newer versions of pylint and pep8.
+
+Hail doesn't fail anymore when trying to add an instance of type
+'file', 'sharedfile' or 'rbd'.
+
+Add new Makefile target to rebuild the whole dist, so that all files are
+included.
