Hello Thomas and Release Team, As we did for Bullseye, we are proposing the following plan to allow Bookworm to ship with the latest LTS versions of DPDK and OVS. This will let us make use of the full LTS support windows for both projects, as we have done for the past few releases. Upload OVS built from git (with new sonames/package renames if necessary), new OVN, DPDK 22.11 in early-to-mid December to unstable, ideally before the 16th as we go on vacation after that, to finish the transition. Then, after OVS 3.1 releases in February, upload it unstable (no soname/transition required, as only bug fixes will go in at that point). The upstream release might happen before or after the 2023/02/12 soft freeze, and if it is after we will ask for an exception. Would this plan work for everyone? Bullseye tickets for reference: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=974588 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=974667 -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
