Hello Everyone, As you know, in zed cycle we are targeting centos-9-stream in testing runtime[1] and dropping the py3.6 support. By dropping the py3.6 support means stop testing the py3.6 and require "python_requires = >=3.8" , For example nova - https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/5f5551448dcfcde26095963e223f973b90e6f... With that centos-8-stream jobs are failing 100% and in qa meeting we decided to drop the support in devstack[2]. Dropping support in devstack means: 1. we will stop testing it[3] 2. Drop support from stack.sh. By disabling centos-8-stream from the supported_distro by default[4] in stack.sh (you can enable it by running with force flag). 1st is done and patch to remove the centos-8-stream job is merged (along with in Tempest and nova). For 2nd one we will wait for 1 more week and will discuss to do in next QA meeting. Please start removing or replacing the c8s jobs with c9s in your projects. You can keep gerrit topic 'drop-c8s-testing' to know the overall status.
