<h2>Availability

of this Release</h2>

NOTE: This document defines

the OpenPegasus 2.11.0 version release with comments added to define

the 2.11.1 revision to that release.  OpenPegasus 2.11.1 is a bug

fix revision to Pegasus 2.11.0. The complete list of changes (total of

32 bugs fixed)  is defined in OpenPegasus bugzilla with the <a href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/buglist.cgi?keywords=2.11.1_APPROVED">2.11.1_APPROVED bugs</a>

query.  We recommend that all uses of 2.11.0 review this list.

OpenPegasus tries to execute only bug fixes for revision releases and

not include enhancements but in exceptional cases including 2.11.1 some

extensions are included (See the Functionality of this Release

section). The OpenPegasus team recommends that users of Pegasus 2.11.0

update to Pegasus 2.11.1 because of of issues defined in a couple of

the bugs below, in particular an api incompatibility defined in bug

9014. Note that in OpenPegasus ALL changes including enhancements are

defined as bugs and committed only when the APPROVED keyword is set so

that the list in the query above defines ALL changes between 2.11.0 and

2.11.1.
