Welcome to our regular release countdown email! Development Focus -----------------
Teams should be wrapping up library work in preparation for release deadlines, starting R-6 week. General Information ------------------- A number of libraries and projects following the cycle-with-intermediary model still haven't released anything in Pike. We recommend that you produce at least one release before the corresponding deadline (Jul 13 for non-client libs, Jul 20 for client libs, Aug 10 for other deliverables), so that the release team has something to fall back to when release branches need to be cut. If no Pike release was produced by the deadline, the release team will have to trigger a release at the current master HEAD, which is almost certainly not what you want. The following deliverables are still concerned: Jul 13: glance-store, instack, requestsexceptions Jul 20: python-designateclient, python-searchlightclient, python-swiftclient Aug 10: aodh, bifrost, ceilometer, cloudkitty[-dashboard], magnum[-ui], murano-agent, networking-hyperv, panko, senlin-dashboard, tacker Actions ------- If your team has a contributor whose work is not reflected in commit authorship (or only appear as "Co-Authored-By" in commit messages), they won't get the right to vote for upcoming elections, unless you explicitly add them to the "extra-atc" list for your project. Please review your contributors and submit patches to the openstack/governance repository (reference/projects.yaml file) accordingly. The deadline for submitting those requests is July 13 ! For projects following the cycle-with-milestones release model, pre-release branches will be cut at RC1, and only members of the $PROJECT-release group in Gerrit will be able to approve backports for further RCs. In preparation for that release phase, you should review who is in that group and adjust it accordingly. Projects (especially those following stable policy) should also review their stable branches and trigger stable point releases as necessary to ship the backports that have landed on those branches, if any. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Extra-ATC addition deadline: July 13 Non-client libraries final releases: July 20 Client libraries final releases: July 27 Pike-3 milestone (and Feature freeze): July 27 Final Pike release: August 30 Queens PTG in Denver: Sept 11-15 -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
