Hello Everyone,

Here is this week's summary of the Technical Committee activities.

1. TC Meetings: ============ * We had this week's meeting on 24th. Most of the meeting discussions are summarized below (Completed or in-progress activities section). Meeting full logs are available @https://meetings.opendev.org/meetings/tc/2022/tc.2022-02-24-15.00.log.html

* Next week's meeting is on 4th March Thursday 15:00 UTC, feel free to add the topic on the agenda[1] by 3rd March.

2. What we completed this week: ========================= * Zed cycle technical election[2] * Switch Keystone back to PTL model[3]

3. Activities In progress: ================== TC Tracker for Yoga cycle ------------------------------ * This etherpad includes the Yoga cycle targets/working items for TC[4]. 2 out of 9 items are completed.

Open Reviews ----------------- * Eight open reviews for ongoing activities[5].

Zed cycle Leaderless projects ---------------------------------- As elections are closed, 17 projects are missing the nomination and out of those 11 have the late nomination. 6 projects are still seeking leaders. As the next step, TC will work on the assignment of leaders if we find any other steps on these leaderless projects[6].

Zed cycle testing runtime ------------------------------ I started the Zed cycle testing runtime, please check and give any objection if there is any[7]

PTG Preparation -------------------- I have started the etherpad for TC PTG[8] preparation as well as for TC+Community Leaders sessions[9]. Also, doodle poll to select the slots[10]

Testing and bumping the lower bounds in requirements.txt --------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian brought this topic while there was discussion on os-bricks bumping the minimum in requirements.rst[11]. As we do not test the lower bounds, we are not sure if existing lower bounds work or not. Telling anyone to reply on those is no guarantee that they will work or not. As TC, we agreed to give more clear direction on lower bounds and that is why we will discuss this topic in Zed PTG. Meanwhile, os-brick bumping the minimum is fine.

Release identification and release name ----------------------------------------------- The proposal is under review and updates [12]

Dropping tags framework ------------------------------ part1 of this is merged[13], part-2 of updating release script and other tags migration is under-progress.

TC position on release cadence ------------------------------------- The proposal is under review and updates [14].

Fixing Zuul config error ---------------------------- Requesting projects with zuul config error to look into those and fix them which should not take much time[15].

Project updates ------------------- * Retire js-openstack-lib (waiting on Adjutant to have new PTL/maintainer) [16]
