+## 1.1.3 - 2012/03/07
+
+This is a release in the development series of mcollective.  It features major
+new features and some bug fixes.
+
+This release is for early adopters, production users should consider the 1.0.x series.
+
+### Enhancements
+
+ * Add the ability to partition collectives into subcollectives for security and
+   network traffic management
+ * Add a exec wrapper for agents that provides unique environments and cwds in a
+   thread safe manner as well as avoid zombie processes
+ * Automatically pass Application options to rpcclient when options are not
+   specifically provided
+ * Reneame _/usr/sbin/mc_ to _/usr/bin/mco_
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+ * Missing _libdirs_ will not cause crashes anymore
+ * Parse _MCOLLECTIVE`_`EXTRA`_`OPTS_ correctly with multiple options
+ * _file`_`logger_ failures are handled better
+ * Improve middleware communication in unreliable settings by adding timeouts
+   around middleware operations
+
+### Backwards Compatibility
+
+The configuration format has changed slightly to accomodate the concept of
+collective names and subcollectives.
+
+In older releases the configuration was:
+
+{% highlight ini %}
+topicprefix = /topic/mcollective
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+This has to change to:
+
+{% highlight ini %}
+topicprefix = /topic/
+main_collective = mcollective
+collectives = mcollective
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+When setup as above a old and new version will be compatible but as soon as you
+start configuring the new subcollective feature you will loose compatiblity
+between versions.
+
+Various defaults apply, if you configure it with these exactly topic and
+collective names you can leave off the _main`_`collective_ and _collectives_
+directives as the above settings would be their defaults
