-----------------

The Dalmatian-2 milestone is next week, on July 4th, 2024!

2024.2 Dalmatian-related specs should now be finalized so that teams

can move to implementation ASAP. Some teams observe specific deadlines

on the second milestone (mostly spec freezes): please refer to

https://releases.openstack.org/dalmatian/schedule.html for details.

General Information

-------------------

Libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. Next

week, the release team will propose releases for any library that has not

been otherwise released since milestone 1. PTL's and release liaisons,

please watch for these and give a +1 to acknowledge them. If there is

some reason to hold off on a release, let us know that as well. A +1

would be appreciated, but if we do not hear anything at all by the end

of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed.

Remember that non-library deliverables that follow the

cycle-with-intermediary release model should have an intermediary

release before milestone-2. Those who haven't will be proposed to switch

to the cycle-with-rc model, which is more suited to deliverables that

are released only once per cycle.

Next week is also the deadline to freeze the contents of the final

release. All new '2024.2 Dalmatian' deliverables need to have a

deliverable file in https://opendev.org/openstack/releases/src/branch/master/deliverables

and need to have done a release by milestone-2.
