Hey folks,

Typically all projects branch at rc1, but originally because we had a mountain 
of blueprints and bugs after mitaka-3 was released, I sent an email indicating 
we would branch at rc2.

Unfortunately branching at rc2 is not a viable plan because we are gating the 
master code base of OpenStack with Mitaka deployment tooling.  Because this 
could result in us finding master bugs in the mitaka codebase, we are branching 
now, as soon as we believe the branch is fairly stable which I hope Is today :).

IMPORTANT for Core reviewers,
If any patch until the release of Mitaka has a TrivialFix  flag, please -1 the 
patch.  All patches need a bug id until Mitaka is released to properly handle 
backports into the mitaka branch.  If its not in the tracker and targeted for 
rc2, it won't be backported.  If it is in the tracker and targeted for rc2, it 
will be backported.  This includes tardy blueprint work.

Since sharing the load on backports hasn't worked in the past, I will take full 
responsibility for cherry-picking and backporting all bug fixes until Mitaka 
releases.  Any patch without a bug ID WILL NOT BE BACKPORTED - so please don't 
approve TrivialFix changes.  Documentation changes are ok without any special 
tagging.

Regards,
-steve
