Team, This week, I learned that the system migration in the OPNFV Intel lab has had a larger impact than expected. The migration has hindered many OPNFV projects from making progress toward MS5, which is currently scheduled for January 13.
Therefore, I am recommending to the TSC that we slip MS5 by two weeks to January 27 and MS6 by three weeks to Feb 17. I'm recommending that MS6 be slipped by more than MS5 in order to avoid the Chinese New Year holiday in early February. At this time, I am *not* recommending that we slip the release date (March 27) for Danube. This will reduce the time between scenario integration (MS5) and stable branch (MS7) from 8 weeks to 6 weeks. This will put some pressure on the project teams and the scenario owners to stabilize scenarios in less time than expected. However, since we don't yet have a lot of data on how much time this actually requires (which, itself, is a moving target), then I think we should test whether we can maintain the schedule for stable branch, and subsequent milestones. The TSC will discuss and vote on this proposed schedule change at the next TSC meeting on January 10. In the mean time, please feel free to respond to this mail with your thoughts on this change. Thanks. David -- *David McBride* Release Manager, OPNFV Mobile: +1.805.276.8018 Email/Google Talk: dmcbr...@linuxfoundation.org Skype: davidjmcbride1 IRC: dmcbride
