Thx. I though that we will for sure release it in Ussuri still. And it’s good idea to add such note about not releasing for Victoria if there will be still nobody to take care of it. I will add it to the deprecation warning.
And in such case, I think that deprecation process which worked for LBaaS and which Nate pointed to, will be good to apply here but in Victoria cycle, not now, right?
