+## Release Notes - cloud-info-provider-indigo, v 0.10.0 & cloud-info-provider: 0.7.0
+
+<a id="id2"></a>
+### What's new
+
+Highlights of the INDIGO-2 release:
+* This update provides <b>repositories and packaging refactoring</b>: 
+* INDIGO-related content has been moved to a dedicated repository and the cloud-info-provider is now using the stock version as features developed in the context of INDIGO have been merged in it. 
+* With this update it is possible to have only the cloud-info-provider package to register site information in both the CMDB and a Site BDII just by using different arguments and templates. 
+* INDIGO-related templates are deployed by the cloud-info-provider-indigo package.
+
+Supported Platforms
+* CentOS7 and Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty)
