+======================================================
+0.2.7 -- pexpect no longer required, "enchant" changes
+======================================================
+
+In order to make Cobbler work on more platforms, the dependancy on
+pexpect (a python module) has been removed. SSH is now invoked directly.
+This means Cobbler now builds very easily on RHEL 4.
+
+As a result, this means that to run "enchant" a remote system, that
+system needs to have the cobbler server in the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
+file. Removing password functionality is more secure and should be
+considered goodness.
+
+In addition, the arguments to "enchant" have changed. See the manpage
+for details.

0.2.6 -- Cheetah no longer required
