[all][PTL][release] Victoria Cycle Highlights
by Kendall Nelson 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Hello Everyone! It's time to start thinking about calling out 'cycle-highlights' in your deliverables! As PTLs, you probably get many pings and emails from various parties (marketing, management, journalists, etc) asking for highlights of what is new and what significant changes are coming in the new release. By putting them all in the same place it makes them easy to reference because they get compiled into a pretty website like this from the last few releases: Rocky[1], Stein[2], Train[3], Ussuri[4]. As usual, we don't need a fully fledged marketing message, just a few highlights (3-4 ideally), from each project team. Looking through your release notes is a good place to start. *The deadline for cycle highlights is the end of the R-5 week [5] on Sept 11th.* How To Reminder: ------------------------- Simply add them to the deliverables/train/$PROJECT.yaml in the openstack/releases repo like this: cycle-highlights: - Introduced new service to use unused host to mine bitcoin. The formatting options for this tag are the same as what you are probably used to with Reno release notes. Also, you can check on the formatting of the output by either running locally: tox -e docs And then checking the resulting doc/build/html/train/highlights.html file or the output of the build-openstack-sphinx-docs job under html/train/ highlights.html. Can't wait to see what you've accomplished! -Kendall Nelson (diablo_rojo) [1] https://releases.openstack.org/rocky/highlights.html [2] https://releases.openstack.org/stein/highlights.html [3] https://releases.openstack.org/train/highlights.html [4] https://releases.openstack.org/ussuri/highlights.html [5] htt <https://releases.openstack.org/train/schedule.html#t-cycle-highlights> https://releases.openstack.org/victoria/schedule.html

[cinder][requirements] FFE request for os-brick
by Brian Rosmaita 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Hello Requirements Team, The victoria release of os-brick 4.0.0 that we did last week contained a bugfix that requires a heavyweight binary dependency. Unfortunately, we did not realize this until yesterday. The cinder team reverted that patch [0] and replaced it with a lightweight fix [1] that does not require any new dependencies and has proposed the release of os-brick 4.0.1 [2]. We are asking for a requirements freeze exception so that os-brick 4.0.1 can be included in the victoria openstack release. [0] https://review.opendev.org/750649 [1] https://review.opendev.org/750655 [2] https://review.opendev.org/#/c/750808/ thank you, brian

[tc] [all] Topics for Cross Community Discussion with Kubernetes ...
by Jay Bryant 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

All, Recently, the OpenStack TC has reached out to the Kubernetes Steering Committee for input as we have proposed adding a starter-kit:kubernetes-in-virt tag for projects in OpenStack. This request was received positively and as a result the TC has started brainstorming other topics that we could approach with the k8s community in this [1] etherpad. If you have topics that may be appropriate for this discussion please see the etherpad and add your ideas. Thanks! Jay IRC: jungleboyj [1] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/kubernetes-cross-community-topics

[infra][tact-sig] October 2020 vPTG space for TaCT SIG work
by Jeremy Stanley 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Just one last quick check, does anyone think we need dedicated TaCT SIG space in the vPTG schedule? I can snag some for us if so. There seemed to be some consensus on IRC that the OpenStack Testing and Collaboration Tools SIG can just glom onto OpenDev and OpenStack QA team vPTG sessions where relevant, which seems entirely prudent to me, and means we don't need our own separate times to talk about things which are neither relevant to OpenDev nor QA (which I estimate to be roughly nil). -- Jeremy Stanley

[nova] Changes for out-of-tree drivers
by Stephen Finucane 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

We're aiming to remove the long-deprecated XenAPI driver before Victoria ends. With that removed, there are a number of XenAPI-specific virt driver APIs that we plan to remove in follow-ups. These are noted at [1]. If you maintain an out-of-tree driver, you will need to account for these changes. Cheers, Stephen [1] https://review.opendev.org/#/c/749300/1/nova/virt/driver.py
