Introduction This past week, part of the team was back in New York for more planning meetings, getting the details of the next 6 months, including LXC, LXD and LXCFS 3.0 fleshed out. The rest of the team made good progress on some smaller feature work, started working on console attach for LXD, looked into

The changes in this release include New features: Add support for specifying the ceph user (using the “ceph.user.name” property) Implement “instance types” as an easy way to specify limits (e.g. “lxc launch ubuntu:16.04 -t t2.micro”) Add a new “lxc query” command as a low level query tool for the LXD API (similar to curl but
