Hey guys,

I am really happy to announce that we have the Icehouse branch now,
so I guess this conversation is not exactly required anymore. I would
still like to wait for a day before I do some required cleanups and the
publish process inside openstack-manuals to maintain the sanity and
the repository should be clean and ready to merge the Juno patches by
tomorrow morning.

Regards,
Pranav
