[HTCondor-world] HTCondor 8.5.1 Released

[Tim Theisen <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The HTCondor team is pleased to announce the release of HTCondor 8.5.1.
This development series release contains new features that are under
development. This release contains all of the bug fixes from the 8.4.3
stable release.

Enhancements in the release include:
 - the shared port daemon is enabled by default
 - the condor_startd now records the peak memory usage instead of recent
 - the condor_startd advertizes CPU submodel and cache size
 - authorizations are automatically setup when "Match Password" is enabled
 - added a schedd-constraint option to condor_q

With the shared port daemon enabled, all HTCondor daemons share a single
inbound network port. This change makes it much easier to construct a
firewall configuration that allows HTCondor use.

A complete list of new features and fixed bugs can be found in the version
history.
