Hi. As described in Documentation/internals/release-process.rst, we are
in a "soft freeze" state:
During the freeze, we ask committers to refrain from applying patches that
add new features unless those patches were already being publicly discussed
and reviewed before the freeze began. Bug fixes are welcome at any time.
Please propose and discuss exceptions on ovs-dev.
We should branch in two weeks from now, on Friday, Jul 15th. With that,
release should be on Monday, Aug 15.
Current known exceptions that will be accepted during soft-freeze, but not
prepared/reviewed yet:
- We're awaiting patches to remove the kernel module from the OVS tree.
Plan for removal was announced along with the release of OVS 2.15 in
Feb 2021. Patches are not yet available on the mailing list.
Ubuntu/Debian packaging updates [0] are also part of that effort as
they are facilitating removal of DKMS packages.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
