Hi Ignasi,
I've just successfully run the whole test suite from the 1.9.x branch:
looks good!
Looking forward for 1.9.1; do you have any plan for 2.0.0?
Regards.

Hi!
Everything is in place to release 1.9.1, but I'd like to propose a
different approach this time. Usually we run the live tests against
each RC, but that means cutting new RCs to fix the important live
tests that fail, which is not an optimal procedure.
I'd like to propose a "pre-release" period (a week?) to run the live
tests and fix them so we can have a smooth and great 1.9,1 release. It
would be great if we could coordinate some provider testing, as not
everyone knows the details of every provider (and not everyone has an
account in each one).
Thinking about the most active contributors, it would be ideal if we
could split the work like:
@nacx: aws-ec2, digitalocean and chef.
@abayer: Could you help with aws-ec2?
@danbroudy: google-compute-engine, google-cloud-storage.
@andreaturli: softlayer, docker.
@zack: rackspace-cloudservers, rackspace-cloudfiles.
@devjcsrj: can you give some love to ProfitBricks?
@ilgrosso: could you rune the live tests on Azure Compute?
@ccustine: would you be able to run the HPCloud Compute live tests?
@gaul: blobmaster! :)
@all-mailing-list-subscribers: Any live test feedback on any provider
is very welcome, and PRs are very welcome too!
Please, don't misunderstand this as an assignment of tasks! I'm just
thinking out loud about a way to coordinate work so we can test and
fix as many broken windows as we can, without duplicating efforts and
without converting it in a tedious task. Running and fixing live tests
(there shouldn't be many live tests failing) shouldn't be a tough
effort, and the benefits for the project are huge.
If there is an agreement, I'd propose a week of live test run&fix and
cut the 1.9.1 release on July 15-20. Does this sound like a good plan?
I.
