Concerning Oslo this is a team decision/position and for now this isn't something general, so, you can still continue to test LC if it works for you.
The TC still needs to decide if we should continue with that or not in an official manner.
Sorry if my precedent message is misleading some of you.

Hello everyone,
Here is an email to officialize our position on Olso concerning our lower-constraints testing policy. Indeed we reached a consensus during our last meeting and all the Oslo cores who spoke agreed with this decision to drop the L.C tests [1].
So we already started to drop lower-constraints jobs on Oslo to unlock
our
gates.
Sorry if my question shouldn't be in that thread but does that mean that
other
projects should/can drop lower constraints jobs too? Is it some general, OpenStack wide decision or it depends on the project?
lower constratis is not a required part fo the PTI https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/pti/python.html
https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/project-testing-interface.html so its technially a per project desision as far as i am aware.
while project were encouraged to adopt lower constratit testing we did not require all project to provide it and i belive there are some that dont unless im mistaken.
so neutron could drop lc testing too i belive if it desired too. unless im misinterperting things
Thanks to everyone who joined the discussion and thanks for reading!

Hello, As you already surely know, we (the openstack project)
currently face
some issues with our lower-constraints jobs due to pip's latest
resolver
feature.
By discussing this topic with Thierry Carrez (ttx) from an oslo
point
of view, we reached the same conclusion that it is more
appropriate to
drop this kind of tests because the complexity and recurring pain
neededto
maintain them now exceeds the benefits provided by this
mechanismes.
Also we should notice that the number of active maintainers is
declining, so we think that this is the shortest path to solve this problem on oslo for now and for the future too.
In a first time I tried to fix our gates by fixing our
lower-constraints project by project but with around ~36 projects
to
maintain this is a painful task, especially due to nested oslo
layers
inside oslo himself... I saw the face of the hell of dependencies.
So, in a second time I submitted a series of patches to drop
these
tests [1].
But before moving further with that we would appreciate
discussing
this with the TC. For now the patches are ready and we just have
to push
the good button accordingly to our choices (+W or abandon).
Normally all the oslo projects that need to be fixed are
covered by
[1].
Thoughts?
+1, I think it's not worth to keep maintaining them which is
taking too
much effort.
