<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi All</div><div><br></div><div>I finally got round to writing up my summary of the Upgrades session at the PTG in Dublin (see [0]).</div><div><br></div><div>One outcome of that session was to form a new SIG centered on Upgrading OpenStack - I'm pleased to announce that the SIG has been formally accepted!</div><div><br></div><div>The objective of the Upgrade SIG is to improve the overall upgrade
process for OpenStack Clouds, covering both offline ‘fast-forward’
upgrades and online ‘rolling’ upgrades, by providing a forum for
cross-project collaboration between operators and developers to document
and codify best practice for upgrading OpenStack.
