[dev] [ANNOUNCE] Apache Libcloud 0.13.1 release

[Tomaz Muraus <to...@apache.org>]

Libcloud is a Python library that abstracts away the differences among
multiple cloud provider APIs. It allows users to manage cloud services
(servers, storage, loadbalancers, DNS) offered by many different providers
through a single, unified and easy to use API.

We are pleased to announce the release of Libcloud 0.13.1!

This is a bug-fix only release. Among some smaller bugs it also fixes
Content-Length regression which broke create and update operations in
the Bluebox Compute and Azure Storage driver (LIBCLOUD-362, LIBCLOUD-3901).
