Hi,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Mostly: that as the Debian package maintainer of OpenStack, the current situation is VERY uncomfortable. :(

It all depends on if we can get Eventlet fixed for Python 3.13. Worst case, if mobody finds a way to fix https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/1032 then from my perspecrive (ie: as the Debian package maintainer), Nova MUST be fixed for 2026.1. Indeed, otherwise Debian 12 will be EOL too early, putting Debian OpenStack operators at risk of unpatch security bugs (I do not want to rely too much on the Debian LTS effort).

Do you think that's possible? If not, then some more effort should be spent on maintaining Eventlet and make it works on Python 3.13 (and 3.14).

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
