Hello Ops folks, This morning at the Sydney Summit we had a very well attended and very productive session about how to go about keeping a selection of past releases available and maintained for a longer period of time (LTS).
There was agreement in the room that this could be accomplished by moving the responsibility for those releases from the Stable Branch team down to those who are already creating and testing patches for old releases: The distros, deployers, and operators. The concept, in general, is to create a new set of cores from these groups, and use 3rd party CI to validate patches. There are lots of details to be worked out yet, but our amazing UC (User Committee) will be begin working out the details. Please take a look at the Etherpad from the session if you'd like to see the details. More importantly, if you would like to contribute to this effort, please add your name to the list starting on line 133. https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/SYD-forum-upstream-lts-releases Thanks to everyone who participated!
