juju-core 1.14.0
================

A new stable release of Juju, juju-core 1.14.0, is now available.

Getting Juju
------------

juju-core 1.14.0 is available in Saucy and backported to earlier series in the following PPA

https://launchpad.net/~juju/+archive/stable

New and Notable
---------------

 * The Microsoft Azure provider is now considered ready for use.
 * lp # 1184786 juju cli now gives a clearer error message when the deprecated default-image-id key is found.
 * When debugging hooks, juju will set the $PS1 value to $JUJU_UNIT_NAME:$JUJU_HOOK_NAME %. This results in a shorter and more useful prompt. Closes ##1212903
 * Juju plugins no longer required the caller to escape all arguments passed to the plugin.
 * The new command “juju unset <service> <setting1> …” allows a configuration setting for a service to be removed. Removing the configuration setting will revert it to the charm default. This is the first step in solving #1194945.
 * The Windows Azure provider now defines a public storage container for tools. No configuration changes are required. Closes #1216770.
 * The debug-hooks subcommand is now implemented. Closed issue #1027876
 * The status subcommand now accepts service/unit filters, to limit output; see “juju help status” for more information. Partially addresses issue #1121916
 * The juju cli command now returns a better error message when run against an environment that has not been bootstrapped. Closes issue #1028053.

Resolved issues
---------------

 * The destroy-environment subcommand now requests confirmation before running, with an option to quietly proceed (-y/--yes). Closed issue #1121914.
 * The cost calculation for the openstack provider was updated to bias towards the lowest number of CPU cores when choosing a machine type matching the provided instance constraints. This closes issue #1210086.
 * The unit agent now removes stale sockets when restarting. Closes #1212916
 * A bug relating to the formatting of tool versions has been resolved. This formatting error was only visible when using the -v or --debug flag. Closes #1216285.
 * lp #1206628 a bug related to the name of an upstart job created for a service unit has been corrected.
 * lp # 1207230 a bug related specifying the type of local provider container has been corrected.

Configuration changes
---------------------

 * none

Known issues
------------

 * The JUJU_ENV environment variable is not being passed down to plugins. LP #1216254.

Testing on Canonistack and HP Cloud
-----------------------------------

A publicly readable bucket has been created for holding the Juju tools on Canonistack. To use it, put this in your ~/.juju/environments.yaml (all on one line):

        public-bucket-url: https://swift.canonistack.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_526ad877f3e3464589dc1145dfeaac60

For HP Cloud the public bucket is available at:
