Those projects are all following the release:independent model, so the
release management team has not been tracking them as part of the Newton
release.

neutron-lib 0.4.0 was the last release before the library freeze date
and we created the stable/newton branch from it[1].

The best way to know which version of any dependency is being treated as
"current" is to look at the openstack/requirements/upper-constraints.txt
file to see what version is listed.

[openstack-dev] [neutron] Newton release, neutron-lib and decomposed projects

2016-09-17 Thread Gary Kotton
Hi,
At the moment I am a little confused and need some help please:

1.   Will we be creating release candidates for Networking-l2gw, 
Networking-sfc and Tap-as-a-service. These projects have tons of deprecation 
warnings (dealt with by: https://review.openstack.org/368392, 
https://review.openstack.org/368398, https://review.openstack.org/368400, 
https://review.openstack.org/368403, https://review.openstack.org/369091, 
https://review.openstack.org/369087 etc.)

2.   Will we be cutting an official neutron-lib for the newton release (or 
at least know that version X is the one that is being released). The reason I 
ask this is that in Mitaka there was a period when we had a number of versions 
in flight. Plugins or libraries that used constants from neutron-lib 0.2.0 
broke stable mitaka. More specifically stable/mitaka was released with 0.1.0.

3.   Neutron code is naturally moving forwards. There are some patches that 
are breaking decomposed plugins – for example 
https://review.openstack.org/364681. This is in master and the decomposed 
plugins will need to update accordingly. We just need to make sure that we have 
cut a decomposed release candidate for newton.
I am not sure if the points above are clear. But maybe for the next cycle it 
would be nice if there was a window for us to be able to close release 
candidates across the entire project.
Thanks
Gary
