** Description changed:

  netplan 0.34 introduces new features:
  
-  - optional: true  on an interface to allow it to be "ignored" by 
networkd-wait-online at boot, and avoid 5 minute delays.
-  - added 'help' subcommands everywhere.
-  - added bash completion
-  - 'netplan ip leases' now allows retrieving the lease file for the "private" 
DHCP settings contained in a lease for the backend in use. The lease file is 
displayed in full and allows retrieving settings not normally exposed by the 
backends.
-  - implement better routing support: policy-based routing is now supported 
for the networkd backend, and better control over the "standard" routes to be 
installed. A new 'on-link: true' option allows for defining a route that is 
directly attached.

+ These stem from various requests we've had concerning the usability of
+ netplan for various projects; for instance:
+ 
+  -  'optional: true' is useful for the ubuntu-server daily image to
+ avoid blocking in networkd while the network interface are coming up
+ (which would block for 5 minutes waiting for timeout if no interface is
+ connected).
+ 
+  - policy routing, on-link: true and general routing improvements are
+ common user requests from people migrating early to bionic.
+ 
+  - help and bash completion are common requested features, and generally
+ greatly improve usability.
+ 
+ This new release also has many long-term maintenance code cleanliness
+ changes and fixes the following bugs:
+ 
+     * Reinstate snap support for dealing with the NetworkManager snap.
+        (LP: #1747714)
+     * Don't silently break bridge-priority; fix it instead. (LP: #1752162)
+     * Disable "ifupdown-migrate"; which is incomplete and thus risks breaking 
systems. Better iterate over it without showing it as a viable option.
