# Keystone Team Update - Week of 22 July 2019
## News
### Midcycle held this week
We held our first midcycle since the PTGs became a thing, possibly also the team's first virtual midcycle (I'm not sure). It went quite well and it was great to sync up with everyone. Recap posted on the mailing list[1].

## Action Items
As discussed during the midcycle retrospective, we'll start calling out action items from the last meeting (or last midcycle, or last PTG, or perhaps any other commitment worth mentioning in a weekly update).
* Remove the keystone socket timeout option (IN PROGRESS: https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/1837407) * Seek feedback from operators on caching guide (guide draft IN PROGRESS: https://review.opendev.org/672120)
