Hello,

We've kept stable/rocky and stable/stein branches of kolla and kolla-ansible around under extended maintenance for a while now.
The coordinated Rocky release was 30th Aug, 2018 (Kolla on 22nd Oct, 2018) and Stein was 10th Apr, 2019 (Kolla on 17th Jul, 2019).

The last time a change was backported to these branches has been a while:
- kolla
  stable/rocky: Sep 4, 2020
  stable/stein:  Mar 19, 2021
- kolla-ansible
  stable/rocky: Sep 13, 2020
  stable/stein: May 28,2021

There is no CI running for those projects periodically, last CI jobs have been run:
- kolla:
  stable/rocky: Jul 8th 2019
  stable/stein: Dec 10th 2020
- kolla-ansible
  stable/rocky: Sep 14th 2019
  stable/stein: Dec 10th 2020

All changes to those branches have been abandoned long time (and nothing new proposed for at least a year):
https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/rocky+project:openstack/kolla <https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/rocky+project:openstack/kolla>
https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/stein+project:openstack/kolla <https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/stein+project:openstack/kolla>
https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/rocky+project:openstack/kolla-ansible <https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/rocky+project:openstack/kolla-ansible>
https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/stein+project:openstack/kolla-ansible <https://review.opendev.org/q/branch:stable/stein+project:openstack/kolla-ansible>

In addition to that - kolla-ansible CI jobs have incorrect Zuul configurations (see http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-November/025797.html <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-November/025797.html>) - and on one of the Kolla weekly meetings it was decided to mark those branches as EOL.

So, I'd like to request that these branches be moved to end-of-life.

Patch proposed to add EOL tags to both kolla and kolla-ansible:
https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/818920 <https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/818920>

Best regards,
Michal
