<h3><a
href="http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2014-January/000187.html">Icehouse-2
development milestone available</a></h3>
<p>The second milestone of the Icehouse development cycle,
icehouse-2″ is now available for Keystone, Glance, Nova,
Horizon, Neutron, Cinder, Ceilometer, Heat, and Trove. Including
the oslo libraries, only 50 blueprints were implemented and
about 650 bugs were fixed during this milestone, which is
slightly less than our usual velocity at that point in the
cycle. This is mostly due to the recent issues in gating and the
end-of-year holiday season. The next development milestone,
icehouse-3, is scheduled for March 6th.</p>
<h3><a
href="http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-January/023859.html">Organizing
a Gate Blocking Bug Fix Day Mon Jan 27th </a></h3>
<p>Developers may have noticed issues with our gate and in order
to improve the situation Sean Dague proposed a Gate Blocking Bug
Fix Day on Jan 27<sup>th</sup>. All developers are encouraged to
focus on fixing bugs on the OpenStack CI infrastructure.</p>
<h3><a
href="http://techs.enovance.com/6643/openstack-swift-as-backend-for-git-part-2">OpenStack
Swift as backend for Git </a></h3>
<p>The fine folks at Enovance have written about the advantages of
using Swift as backend for Git. In a <a
href="http://techs.enovance.com/?p=6642">recent blog post</a>
they gave also some details about what happens in Git (server
side) when a client pushes or fetches objects. Theyve now
shared more operational details on how to handle Swift as a
backend to store repositories.</p>
