Excerpts from Gary Kotton's message of 2016-09-18 05:16:54 +0000: > Hi, > At the moment I am a little confused and need some help please: > > 1. Will we be creating release candidates for Networking-l2gw, Networking-sfc and Tap-as-a-service. These projects have tons of deprecation warnings (dealt with by: https://review.openstack.org/368392, https://review.openstack.org/368398, https://review.openstack.org/368400, https://review.openstack.org/368403, https://review.openstack.org/369091, https://review.openstack.org/369087 etc.) Those projects are all following the release:independent model, so the release management team has not been tracking them as part of the Newton release. > > 2. Will we be cutting an official neutron-lib for the newton release (or at least know that version X is the one that is being released). The reason I ask this is that in Mitaka there was a period when we had a number of versions in flight. Plugins or libraries that used constants from neutron-lib 0.2.0 broke stable mitaka. More specifically stable/mitaka was released with 0.1.0. neutron-lib 0.4.0 was the last release before the library freeze date and we created the stable/newton branch from it[1]. The best way to know which version of any dependency is being treated as "current" is to look at the openstack/requirements/upper-constraints.txt file to see what version is listed.
