Development Focus ----------------- Teams should be focused on implementing planned work. Work should be wrapping up on client libraries to meet the client lib deadline Thursday, the 26th.
General Information ------------------- The final client library release is on Thursday the 26th. Releases will only be allowed for critical fixes in libraries after this point as we stabilize requirements and give time for any unforeseen impacts from lib changes to trickle through. If release critical library or client library releases are needed for Rocky past the freeze dates, you must request a Feature Freeze Exception (FFE) from the requirements team before we can do a new release to avoid having something released in Rocky that is not actually usable. This is done by posting to the openstack-dev mailing list with a subject line similar to: [$PROJECT][requirements] FFE requested for $PROJECT_LIB Include justification/reasoning for why a FFE is needed for this lib. If/when the requirements team OKs the post-freeze update, we can then process a new release. Including a link to the FFE in the release request is not required, but would be helpful in making sure we are clear to do a new release. When requesting these library releases, you should also include the stable branching request with the review (as an example, see the "branches" section here: http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/releases/tree/deliverables/pike/os-brick.yaml#n2) Cycle-trailing projects are reminded that all reviews to the requirements project will have a procedural -2 unless it recieves a FFE until stable/rocky is branched.
