Hello,

The Incus team is very excited to announce the release of Incus 6.4!

This release builds upon the recently added OCI support from Incus 6.3,
making it even easier to run application containers. It also adds a number of
useful new features for clustered and larger environments with more control
on the virtual CPU used when live migrating VMs and finer grained resource
constraints within projects.

With Incus, you can easily create and manage both containers and
virtual-machines on a standalone system or a cluster of machines.
It provides a variety of storage and networking options with the goal to feel
like you're interacting with a cloud, but all locally.

The highlights for this release of Incus are:
- Cluster group configuration
- Per-cluster group CPU baseline
- Attaching sub-directories of custom storage volumes
- Per storage pool project limits
- Isolated OVN networks (no uplink)
- Per-instance LXCFS
- Environment files at create/launch time
