Hi,
In the previous thread about the U release name, we discussed how the actual process for selecting the name has diverged from the written process. I think it's important that we follow our own processes, so we should reconcile those. We should change our actions or change the process.
Based on the previous discussion, I've proposed 6 changes to openstack/governance for some initial feedback. We can, of course, tweak these options, eliminate them, or add new ones.
Ultimately, we're aiming for the TC to formally vote on one or a small number of changes similar to these.
I'd like for anyone interested in this to review these options and leave feedback on the changes themselves, or here on the mailing list. Either is fine, and all will be considered. Leaving "code-review" votes on the changes themselves will help us gauge relative support for the different options.
In a week, I'll collect the feedback and propose a next step.
https://review.opendev.org/675788 - Stop naming releases https://review.opendev.org/677745 - Name releases after major cities https://review.opendev.org/677746 - Name releases after the ICAO alphabet https://review.opendev.org/677747 - Ask the Foundation to name releases https://review.opendev.org/677748 - Name releases after random words https://review.opendev.org/677749 - Clarify the existing release naming process
The last one is worth particular mention -- it keeps the current process with some minor clarifications.
