0.2.0

First regular release. windeploy is still an early version (0.x): try it on a test domain first. It installs from the Software Center without enabling testing versions, and updates an installed 0.1.0 pre-release in place.

New since 0.1.0-alpha.5

• Compare a DNS zone with the public DNS. An internal zone answers for its whole name, so a record changed at the DNS provider keeps its old value for everybody who asks the domain controller. The comparison lists the internal records next to the public ones: equal, different, or only internal. A record that differs can take the public value or be deleted.
• The public side is asked over DNS over HTTPS; the names of the zone are sent to that resolver, and the page says so.
• A link to dnshelper when the cluster has one, to change the public side there.

What the module does

• Deployments: winget packages rolled out through Group Policy scheduled tasks.
• Policies: 20 security settings for the computers as GPOs.
• DNS: records and zones of the internal DNS of the domain.
