Funny you should mention that. I¹m not the RM obviously, but Daan asked me
if I could have a fresh look at the list of blockers and criticals. If you
want, consider me a temporary junior administrative assistant to the
release manager ;-). What¹s a chore for Daan is a good way for me to learn
more cloudstack!
Here¹s this afternoon's blockers against 4.4 ordered by creation date:

faling during BVT

Leo¹s evaluation: test for unfinished new feature is failing
Leo¹s suggestion: if not easy to fix, defer feature to 4.5
I was going to give my suggestions to Daan to try and make a call on, but I
guess it¹s better if that can be done by y¹all, right here.
Note a lot of these are very recent coming out of ongoing QA, so I imagine
this list is still to grow before it shrinks.
Next, here¹s a bunch of older critical issues against 4.4:

As you can see, as far as I understand (which is not very farŠ), most of
these older issues are definitely serious. In other words, I think most of
them definitely deserve to be considered critical bugs, they¹re not
particularly mis-triaged. But, they¹re very specific / difficult to
reproduce / limited to a specific combination of components, so they
should perhaps not hold up a release, given where cloudstack is at right
now. For many of them, that¹s the same choice that was made when baking
the 4.3 release. It¹d obviously be great to not have to bump them again,
but, given this release is so late, it seems a reasonable choice.
Then there¹s another bucket of issues related to something called ³vmsync²
which need some follow up from someone that understands that stuff.
CLOUDSTACK-6063 also deserves a highlight. AIUI this was a dirty/quick fix
for 4.3 that should have received a proper fix in then-master now-4.4. I
didn¹t find yet whether it did.
I think tomorrow I¹m digging through the criticals that have seen updates
after may 1st, of which there are currently **68**. Comparing bug creation
rate with bug resolution rate, there will never be a 4.4 release if all
those have to be fixedŠso I imagine the only available approach is to
defer a lot of _those_ to 4.5, too :-/.
Hope this helps! Cheers,
Leo
