Hello everyone!
We are happy to announce the immediate availability of Uyuni 2021.01
At https://www.uyuni-project.org/pages/stable-version.html you will find all the resources you need to start working with Uyuni 2021.01, including the release notes, documentation, requirements and setup instructions.
IMPORTANT: Keep in mind Uyuni 2020.07 changed the base OS to openSUSE Leap 15.2, so a special procedure is needed if you are not upgrading from 2020.07 or later, but from a previous version! Check the release notes and the documentation for all the details
This is the list of highlights for this release:
* Fix version comparison algorithm for deb packages (Ubuntu) * New products enabled * SAP content * CPU mitigations formula * Vendor change on SP migration * Autoinstallation of older operating systems * Oracle Linux ULN repositories * CentOS 6 repositories * New countries and timezones * Cluster management: upgrade plan * Yomi refresh * Uyuni Server connections are always and only secure * Monitoring updates - Grafana 7.3.1 - Prometheus 2.22.1 - Prometheus Exporter Exporter for Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 and Debian 9/10
Please check the release notes for full details.
For the fixes for salt CVEs, there will be an Uyuni 2021.02 release by the end of February as the fixes rescheduled by upstream [2]
Remember that Uyuni will follow a rolling release planning, so the next version will contain bugfixes for this one and any new features. There will be no maintenance of 2021.01
As always, we hope you will enjoy Uyuni 2021.01 and we invite everyone of you to send us your feedback [1] and of course your patches, if you can contribute.
Happy hacking!

Another important thing:
IMPORTANT: Plan yourself before migrating to Uyuni 2021.01. The database changes can take from 30 minutes to several hours. Check the release notes for more information.
This note is on the site [1] and on the release notes [2] (you should always read them before performing an update), but having this at the email announcement is important as well.
Thanks to Michael Calmer for warning me about it.
Happy hacking!

And one especial note.
Those of you upgrading from >= 2020.07 should hit:
https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/issues/3230
If that is the case, confirm the vendor change for apache-commons-el from Uyuni to openSUSE Leap.
Please confirm at the bug that this works, and I will add this to the release notes and the site. If none confirms it, I will try to reproduce on Monday.
And for those of you upgrading from < 2020.07, remember:
IMPORTANT: Keep in mind Uyuni 2020.07 changed the base OS to openSUSE Leap 15.2, so a special procedure is needed if you are not upgrading from 2020.07 or later, but from a previous version! Check the release notes and the documentation for all the details
The procedure in this case allows the vendor change, so you should not get a question about apache-commons-el.
Sorry about the inconvenience.

Thanks to digdilem, Robert Paschedag, Ethan Bonick and Christian Stankowic, we now have a verified solution for this problem.
If after the update the WebUI is not starting, you need to do the following:
1. Stop spacewalk-services
2. Run the following zypper command:
zypper install --allow-downgrade --allow-vendor-change -f apache-commons-cli-1.4-lp152.1.3.noarch apache-commons-jexl-2.1.1-lp152.1.1.noarch apache-commons-el-1.0-lp152.2.3.1.noarch
3. Confirm the changes and wait until the changes are complete.
4. Start spacewalk-services.
5. WebUI will work again.
If you are interested on the technical details, you can check them at
https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/issues/3230#issuecomment-774202979
For now I will add this information to the website, the release notes on the website, and Twitter.
On Monday I will prepare a fix on the Patches repositories for the release notes that get installed on the server, and spacewalk-common and spacewalk-web so the WebUI and /etc/uyuni-release do not show "2021.02" as version (this is only cosmetic, no need to worry about it as it will not affect functionality)
I know this was a bumpy release, but I am very happy to see that I can count on the understanding of the community and its help to fix the problems.
Once again, sorry for the inconvenience... and happy hacking!
