+    Improvements to Swift device management and ring generation.
+
+    The device management and ring generation are now separate, with device management
+    occurring during 'kayobe overcloud host configure', and ring generation during a
+    new command, 'kayobe overcloud swift rings generate'.
+
+    For the device management, we now use standard Ansible modules rather than commands
+    for device preparation. File system labels can be configured for each device individually.
+
+    For ring generation, all commands are run on a single host, by default a host in the Swift
+    storage group. A python script runs in one of the kolla Swift containers, which consumes
+    an autogenerated YAML config file that defines the layout of the rings.
