Hi Morgan,

Coming back to this old thread after the TSC discussion today.

My feeling is that the argument that we have to do stress testing on the
N-1 release because the installers are not available early in the cycle
is an argument for changing the release process (or converting it to a
continuous delivery model where the tip of master is always more or less
releasable).

Based on the conversation earlier, I think that we should not be
attempting to backport fixes at all in OPNFV if we can avoid it - if
operators and vendors want to fix issues that we have identified and
fixed in the tip of master, then the back-porting is their job, not
OPNFV's - and I do not think that this is a sufficient reason to break
the "gold standard" of no fork, upstream first which has been the OPNFV
mantra since its creation.

If we can get towards a rolling release of tip-of-master in OPNFV, I
think that this is what provides the greatest value to feature and
testing projects, operators, and vendors. Features will be tested as
integrated upstream, operators should get a higher cadence for new
features, and in general we will not be expending extra effort in a
community project back-porting fixes or features to N-1, or maintaining
patches against N-1 to fix resiliency issues.

Thanks,
Dave.
