For example, python-keystoneclient currently has oslo.config>=1.4.0.0a3. Seems like the final client release should have the final oslo library in the requirements. If so we'll need the final release of oslo.config, updated global requirements, sync that to keystoneclient & merged before we can do the final release of python-keystoneclient.

Good point. Yes, I think that’s a good idea.

Maybe we should plan for the 19th for the clients to give time for all of those changes to land? We can make one requirements patch, after the oslo libs are all cut.
