Hello everyone,
The first milestone of the Liberty development cycle, "liberty-1", is now reached. For projects following the milestone-based release schedule, it contains all the new features and bugfixes that have been added since the Kilo Feature Freeze in March.
The release management team directly manages a number of OpenStack projects, for which it published tarballs corresponding to the milestone. You can find those source tarball downloads, as well as the full list of new features and fixed bugs, at:

You'll notice that each component now uses an independent version number (instead of the blanket "2015.2" number). This is to better acknowledge that each project may move forward at a different rhythm, and that the liberty "final" coordinated release will be made of projects following the milestone-based schedule (like keystone) but also of projects following an independent schedule (like swift).
The next development milestone, liberty-2, is scheduled for July 30th. You can track the current achievements of the Liberty development cycle and some of the work in progress at:
