Hello, As many of you know, during Kilo, the neutron vendor decomposition happened, which lead to the birth of many networking-* libraries, including networking-hyperv. When it was time for us to make a release for that cycle, pretty much every networking-* project followed the release version number at that time, which was 2015.1.0. After Kilo, the versioning changed to the current format.
networking-hyperv currently contains the "hyperv" mechanism_driver, which is needed in order to bind neutron ports to Hyper-V compute nodes using neutron-hyperv-agent L2 agents. Now, my main issue is that networking-hyperv==2015.1.0 is currently on Pypi, and whenever someone upgrades networking-hyperv through pip (pip install -U networking-hyperv), it "upgrades" to 2015.1.0. And even if it isn't already installed, networking-hyperv==2015.1.0 is installed, as that is considered the "latest" version: (test) ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ pip freeze | grep networking-hyperv (test) ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ pip install networking-hyperv ... (test) ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ pip freeze | grep networking-hyperv networking-hyperv==2015.1.0 This is a common pitfall for people using pip to install / upgrade networking-hyperv. It's actually become a ritual for new developers to mistakenly install the "latest" version. :) Now, my question is: could we / should we unpublish the 2015.1.0 version?
