Release Notes
===============
+v0.75
+-----
+
+This is a big release, with lots of infrastructure going in for
+firefly. The big items include a prototype standalone frontend for
+radosgw (which does not require apache or fastcgi), tracking for read
+activity on the osds (to inform tiering decisions), preliminary cache
+pool support (no snapshots yet), and lots of bug fixes and other work
+across the tree to get ready for the next batch of erasure coding
+patches.
+

+Upgrading
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- The 'osd pool create ...' syntax has changed for erasure pools.
+
+- The default CRUSH rules and layouts are now using the latest and
+ greatest tunables and defaults. Clusters using the old values will
+ now present with a health WARN state. This can be disabled by
+ adding 'mon warn on legacy crush tunables = false' to ceph.conf.
+
+
