It might be{,come} an alternative to Veewee to create our
Vagrant-based builder VM.

I'm pleased to announce release 0.12.0 of Oz. Oz is a program for doing automated installation of guest operating systems with limited input from the user. Release 0.12.0 is a bugfix and feature release for Oz. Some of the highlights between Oz 0.11.0 and 0.12.0 are:

* Fixes to concurrent oz-install invocations
* Python 3 compatibility in the test suites
* Support for Ubuntu 12.04.3
* Support for Mageia
* Allow a MAC address to be passed in (instead of auto-generated)
* Support for RHEL5.10
* Support for Ubuntu 13.10
* Use lxml instead of libxml2 for XML document processing (it has much better error messages)
* Remove the unused "tunnels" functionality
* Support FreeBSD 10.0
* Remove deprecated functions from the Guest class
* Speed up guest customization on guests that support NetworkManager
* Follow subprocess commands as they are executed (makes debugging easier)
* Ensure that any paths from the user are absolute, otherwise things don't work properly
* Add support for OpenSUSE 13.1
* Add support for Fedora 20
* Add support for RHEL-7
A tarball and zipfile of this release is available on the Github releases page: [https://github.com/clalancette/oz/releases](https://github.com/clalancette/oz/releases). Packages for Fedora-19, Fedora-20, and EPEL-6 have been built in Koji and will eventually make their way to stable. Instructions on how to get and use Oz are available at [http://github.com/clalancette/oz/wiki](http://github.com/clalancette/oz/wiki).
