key point is that we in Fuel need to follow as much community adopted<br>
process as we can, and not to introduce something Fuel specific. We<br>
need not only to avoid forking code, but also to avoid forking<br>
processes and approaches for Fuel.<br>
<br>
Both #2 and #3 allow it, making it easier for contributors to<br>
participate in the Fuel.<br>
<br>
#3 (having internal repos for pre-release preparation, bug fixing and<br>
small custom features) from community perspective is the same as #2,<br>
provided that all the code from these internal repos always ends up<br>
being committed upstream. Purely internal logistics.<br>
<br>
The only one additional note from my side is that we might want to<br>
consider an approach slightly adopted similar to what's there in<br>
Puppet modules. AFAIK, they are typically released several weeks later<br>
than Openstack code. This is natural for Fuel as it depends on these<br>
modules and packaging of Openstack.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I also think we should go with option #2. What it means to me</div><div>* Short FF: create stable branch couple of weeks after FF for upstream Fuel</div><div>* Untie release schedule for upstream Fuel and MOS. This should be two separate schedules</div><div>* Fuel release schedule should be more aligned with <span class="" id=":1nv.4" tabindex="-1">OpenStack</span> release schedule.
