Hello Everyone!
As you may or may not have read last week in the release update from Sean, its time to call out 'cycle-highlights' in your deliverables!
As PTLs, you probably get many pings towards the end of every release cycle by various parties (marketing, management, journalists, etc) asking for highlights of what is new and what significant changes are coming in the new release. By putting them all in the same place it makes them easy to reference because they get compiled into a pretty website like this from Rocky[1] or this one for Stein[2].
We don't need a fully fledged marketing message, just a few highlights (3-4 ideally), from each project team.
*The deadline for cycle highlights is the end of the R-5 week [3] on Sept 13th.*
How To Reminder: -------------------------
Simply add them to the deliverables/train/$PROJECT.yaml in the openstack/releases repo similar to this:
cycle-highlights: - Introduced new service to use unused host to mine bitcoin.
The formatting options for this tag are the same as what you are probably used to with Reno release notes.
Also, you can check on the formatting of the output by either running locally:
tox -e docs
And then checking the resulting doc/build/html/train/highlights.html file or the output of the build-openstack-sphinx-docs job under html/train/ highlights.html.
Thanks :) -Kendall Nelson (diablo_rojo)
