<div>Hey folks,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We had originally planned to release 2.0.0 today but there are a few more bugs left to resolve before our final tag. Hence, we made a decision to move the final 2.0.0 release to Thursday, April 21st.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am super pleased to announce the release of 2.0.0.0 rc4 which fixes 37 bugs, many of which are highly critical.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If your in any way interested in the Kolla project, now is he time to test the stable/mitaka branch. To do that:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>git clone <a href="http://github.com/openstack/kolla">http://github.com/openstack/kolla</a></div>
<div>git checkout stable/mitaka</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Read directions here:</div>
<div><a href="http://docs.openstack.org/developer/kolla/">http://docs.openstack.org/developer/kolla/</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If something isn't working for you, please join #openstack-kolla on IRC for help, report a bug, or both :)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>At this point, all core reviewers should be testing stable/mitaka for any last minute problems. Any developers in general, please focus on Mitaka for the next week rather then doing new development. A one week pause won't kill folks :)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Our list of bugs that need addressing are located here:</div>
<div><a href="https://launchpad.net/kolla/+milestone/2.0.0">https://launchpad.net/kolla/+milestone/2.0.0</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For confirmed bugs, feel free to assign yourself if you want to dedicate the next 6 days of your life to fixing that particular bug. If you see a bug in the "triaged" state, try to reproduce it. If you are able to reproduce it, or unable to reproduce
it, please report in the bug log. If a triaged bug is confirmed, one of the core reviewers will mark it as such. If it can't be confirmed, we will mark it as incomplete for 2.0.0.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'd like to thank dims of the release team for working with us on manually tagging the rc4 release as we sort out the tagging process in this review:</div>
