Also suggestion: drop tick/tock from naming documentation please. I never remember which is major and which is minor.
This is a good point. From an internationalization perspective, the choice of wording could be especially confusing as it's an analogy for English onomatopoeia related to mechanical clocks. I doubt it would translate well (if at all).
In retrospect, adjusting the terminology to make 2023.1 the "primary" release of 2023, with 2023.2 as the "secondary" release of that year, makes it a bit more clear as to their relationship to one another. We can say that consumers are able to upgrade directly from one primary release to another, skipping secondary releases.
With the outcome of the legal check, it is not clear to us that tick-tock words are ok to use for the new release cadence terminology and in what form/combination. In TC, we decided to use a different name and 'SLURP' (Skip Level Upgrade Release Process) is the choice of the majority [1]. I have pushed the patch to reflect the same in the TC resolution - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/840354 [1] https://meetings.opendev.org/meetings/tc/2022/tc.2022-05-12-15.00.log.html#l... -gmann
