Hi all, we're happy to announce that RC4 for 2.1.2 is now available for testing.

This release candidate also adds the following fixes for bugs:

* Fixed a bug related to creation of retry files (#17456)
* Fixed a bug in the way include params are used when an include task is dynamic (#17064)
* Fixed a bug related to including blocks in an include task (#15963)
* Fixed a bug related to the use of hostvars internally when creating the connection plugin. This prevents things like variables using lookups from being evaluated unnecessarily (#17024)
* Fixed a bug where using a variable containing a list for the `hosts` of a play resulted in an list of lists (#16583)
* Fixed a bug where integer values would cause an error if a module param was of type `float` (no issue)
* Fixed a bug with net_template failing if src was not specified (#17726)

Module fixes:
* ini_file:
  - Fixed a bug where option lines are now inserted before blank lines.
  - Fixed a bug where leading whitespace prevented matches on options.
* Fixed a bug in iam_cert when dup_ok is used as a string.
* Fixed a bug in postgresql_db related to the changed logic when state=absent.
* Fixed a bug where single_transaction and quick were not passed into db_dump for the mysql_db module.
* Fixed several bugs with mount.
* Fixed several more minor bugs in extras modules.

How do you get it?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The tar.gz of the release can be found here:

SHA256: 2e2a10090cdd50ea0970e4368949d8c3b75d1d62618fab738c475adb6c1d8e87

You can also test against the git repository as follows:

$ cd ansible
$ git checkout v2.1.2.0-0.4.rc4
$ git submodule update --init

You can then source our testing script:

$ . hacking/env-setup

or you can build your own .tar.gz (output will be dist/ansible-2.1.2.0.tar.gz):

$ make sdist

If you discover any errors, or if you see any regressions from playbooks which work on 1.9.x and prior, please open a Github issue and be sure to mention you're testing against this release candidate.

Thanks!
