Hello, Doug, One question, according to the guide for self-branch[1], the Ocata stable branch should be created for RC1 tag for projects using the cycle-with-milestone release model. The date for RC1 one is Jan 30 - Feb 03 according to the schedule [2]. Tricircle is one big-tent project with cycle-with-intermediary mode, and has dependency on stable Neutron, should Tricircle Ocata stable branch be created during Jan 30 - Feb 03 or later than Feb 03? I think Neutron Ocata stable branch will be created during Jan 30 - Feb 03.

The deadline for non-client library releases is Thursday 19 Jan. We do not grant Feature Freeze Extensions for any libraries, so that is a hard freeze date. Any feature work that requires updates to non-client libraries should be prioritized so it can be completed by that time. Release Tasks ------------- As we did at the end of Newton, when the time comes to create stable/ocata branches they will be configured so that members of the $project-release group in gerrit have permission to approve patches. This group should be a small subset of the core review team, aware of the priorities and criteria for patches to be approved as we work toward release candidates. Release liaisons should ensure that these groups exist in gerrit and that their membership is correct for this cycle. Please coordinate with the release management team if you have any questions. General Notes ------------- We will start the soft string freeze during R-4 (23-27 Jan). See https://releases.openstack.org/ocata/schedule.html#o-soft-sf for details The release team is now publishing the release calendar using ICS.
