Foreman 1.22.0-RC1 is ready for testing!

Foreman 1.22.0-RC1 is now available for testing, big thanks to everyone who contributed and especially to @ekohl who has been handling most of the technical work of building this release.

Please help by testing and getting it release-ready, and let us know if you hit any issue when upgrading or installing the release candidate either here or on the redmine issue tracker.

There is one known issue in hammer affecting host updates, but other than that the release candidate should have no other know issues.

Due to the recent changes in the libraries used to communicate with compute resources, testing around compute resource provisioning would be especially helpful.
