I am happy to see the release cadence being documented and supported by the project. This will help downstream users to better support OVS. Since the above mentions that it is subject to change, I wonder if we could have the next release date documented somewhere (maybe a line in NEWS?). If anyone feels it needs more time, the developer can send a patch to start a discussion and if approved, it gets documented for everyone else's benefit. -- fbl _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
