hello TripleO, per $subject I want to propose that tripleo-ipsec moves to the independent release model, as done recently for os-collect-config and friends at [1]. The tripleo-ipsec repo hasn't had much/any commits in the last year [2]. In fact, we hadn't even created a ussuri branch for this repo and no-one noticed (!). Because of the lack of stable/ussuri some of the release jobs failed, as discussed at [3] and which ttx tried to fix (thank you!) with [4]. Unfortunately this hasn't resolved the issue and jobs are still failing, as discussed just now in openstack-release [4]. If we agree to move tripleo-ipsec to independent then it will also resolve this build job issue. If we move tripleo-ipsec to independent it means we can still release it if required, but we will no longer create stable/branches for the repo. please voice any objections here or go and comment on the proposal at [6] thanks for reading! regards, marios [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/772570 [2] https://opendev.org/openstack/tripleo-ipsec/commits/branch/master [3] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-January/020112.h...
