This is the wrong way to look at it. You folks really suffered for not having a working Fedora build when it came time to actually shift to Python 3 for RHEL/CentOS 8. Because of this failure in your development process, you wound up having to take a whole year to fix everything, rather than having that work already done incrementally as things changed in Fedora. The truth of the matter is, since you folks didn't actively work in Fedora back when you *were* doing OpenStack on Fedora, you were always caught off-guard and unable to benefit from the effects of having the Fedora community involved in supporting many of the components that OpenStack relies on. And if someone brings up the release cycle, I'd just point out that they've been mostly aligned for a few years now, usually just slightly out of sync for Fedora GA releases by a couple of weeks for one of the releases each year. If you folks actually *wanted* to bring that into alignment with Fedora, I'm sure you could figure out a way to make that happen. And shipping RCs in Fedora GA and pushing final as post-GA update isn't all that bad either... -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@lists.rdoproject.org http://lists.rdoproject.org/mailman/listinfo/dev To unsubscribe: dev-unsubscr...@lists.rdoproject.org
