Hi folks,
Since in today's TWS there were not many project leads and committers of
the dependent projects attending - the action item for me was to send an
email summarizing the plan for migration and send it to release & discuss.
So I would like to provide (repeat) the rough plan:
1. Have the projects test out the new design and report issues. The
OpenFlow Plugin release plan would be dependent on that. The already
extended deadline for this was April 7 so that OFP has inputs to decide
what major issues need to be addressed - and be incorporated in the
OpenFlow Plugin release plan (due April 21).
- The issues should be filed as blocker bugs for OpenFlow Plugin with
the title starting with the string "Li Migration: ". This will
make it easy
to search for the issues in bugzilla.
- So far we have received reports from VTN (3 issues - 4671, 5432 &
5602), GBP (no blocking issues reported). In the past L2 switch had
responded saying they already support the Lithium design natively. Need
reports from the remaining projects & I think we will need to track these
in the Boron spreadsheet.
2. The OFP target for fixing the issues and actually changing the
default plugin would likely be dependent offset 2 projects M2 / OpenFlow
Plugin M3 - depending on the complexity of the issues identified.
- I have reflected this in the OpenFlow Plugin release plan under M3.
Again please be aware of this plan and please report the corresponding
issues as soon as possible (deadline April 7). We can discuss the issues in
the next week TWS call.
I will try to reach out individually to you all the next few days.
Thanks,
Abhijit
