The Cinder driver removal policy has been updated [0]. Drivers eligible for removal, at the discretion of the team, may remain in the code repository as long as they continue to pass OpenStack CI testing. When such a driver blocks the CI check or gate, it will be removed immediately. The intent of the policy revision is twofold. First, it gives vendors a longer grace period in which to make the necessary changes to have their drivers reinstated as ‘supported’. Second, keeping these drivers in-tree longer should make life easier for operators who have deployed storage backends with drivers that have been marked as ‘unsupported’. Please see the full statement of the policy [0] for details. [0] https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/drivers-all-about.html#driver-remov...
