Hello, As you know, some of the OpenStack projects were marked inactive during this cycle. There are still on-going discussions but from my view these are very likely excluded from the upcoming 2024.1 release and it's unclear yet if any of these projects will be kept. Currently heat provides features integrated with some of the inactive projects (Monasca, Sahara and Senlin), and we have to decide how we deal with these features[1]. The main concern is that we can't maintain the features for the inactive projects, and IMO we should retire these features if these inactive projects are abandoned or are no longer maintained in the consistent way with the other active projects. Based on the current situation, I'd propose the following steps for upcoming cycles. - Deprecate the features dependent on inactive projects in 2023.2 release - Note that we have to remove these features directly during this cycle in case any problems related to these project block the upcoming heat release. - Remove these features in 2024.1 release unless we are sure that these projects are kept maintained as active projects in the openstack namespace, with following the global release cycle. Please let me know if you have any concern about the proposed plan. If I hear no objections then I'll propose patches for deprecation. Thank you, Takashi Kajinami irc: tkajinam [1] I've submitted a series of patches to remove these features and these would give a clear view about the features affected. https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22inactive-project-removal%22+project:op...
