PTLs,
We have quite a few unreleased client changes pending, and it would
be good to go ahead and publish them so they can be tested as part
of the release candidate process. I have the full list of changes for
each project below, so please find yours and review them and then
propose a release request to the openstack/releases repository.
Manila had multiple gate-breaking bugs this week and I've extended our
feature freeze to next Tuesday to compensate. As a result our L-3
milestone release is not really representative of Liberty and we'd
rather not do a client release until we reach RC1.
Keep in mind that the unreleased changes are not being used to test
anything at all in the gate, so there's an integration "penalty" for
delaying releases. You can have as many releases as you want, and we can
create the stable branch from the last useful release any time after it
is created. So, I still recommend releasing early and often unless you
anticipate making API or CLI breaking changes between now and RC1.
There is currently an API breaking change that needs to be fixed. It
will be fixed before the RC so that Kilo<->Liberty upgrades go smoothly
but the L-3 milestone is broken regarding forward and backward
compatibility.

I would actually want to release a milestone between L-3 and RC1 after
we get to the real Manila FF date but since that's not in line with the
official release process I'm okay waiting for RC1. Since there is no
official process for client releases (that I know about) I'd rather just
wait to do the client until RC1. We'll plan for an early RC1 by
aggressively driving the bugs to zero instead of putting time into
testing the L-3 milestone.
