Weave 1.3.1

Highlights

• The minimum Docker version has been increased to 1.6 due to the upcoming deprecation of Dockerhub access for old clients. From December 7th onwards previous versions of the weave script will fail to pull down images from the hub; if you are unable to upgrade to 1.3.1 immediately you can work around this by running weave --local setup in conjunction with a compatible Docker client installation
• Docker networking plugin now works with older kernels and allows you to configure the MTU

Installation and Upgrading

Follow the installation instructions to install this latest release of weave.

Weave 1.3.1 is fully compatible with Weave 1.3.0, 1.2.x and 1.1.x, so it is possible to upgrade clusters incrementally and run mixed versions. If upgrading from Weave 1.0.x, take into account the Weave 1.1.0 upgrading instructions.
