[all][neutron][neutron-vpnaas] Maintainers needed
Hi, In the last few cycles neutron-vpnaas has no serious maintainers, and most patches merged were from Neutron core team or from Release team. Recently even neutron-vpnaas gate jobs started to fail. During the Zed PTG we discussed this topic (see [1]), For the maintenance we need someone to be the contact person for the project, who takes care of the project’s CI and review patches, answers bugs. Of course that’s only a minimal requirement. If the new maintainer works on new features for the project, it’s even better :) If we don’t have any new maintainer(s) before milestone Zed-2, which is July 11 - July 15 week according to [2], we will start marking neutron-vpnaas as deprecated and in the next cycle (AA, or perhapc 2023.1) we will propose to retire the project. So if You are using this project now, or if You have customers who are using it, please consider the possibility of maintaining it. Otherwise, please be aware that it is highly possible that the project will be deprecated and moved out from the official OpenStack projects.

Hi there, Just wanted to bring up that I've actually went ahead and fixed the functional gates, I'd also like to volunteer to maintain it. We've got some use of it and we've also been contributing fixes for it for quite sometime: https://review.opendev.org/q/project:openstack/neutron-vpnaas+owner:mnaser%2... Thanks for keep it moving for that period in time. I hope others chime in too. Thanks Mohammed On Mon, Apr 11, 2022 at 6:10 AM Lajos Katona <katonalala@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, Thanks Mohammed for jumping in to keep neutron-vpnaas alive. Of course we are open to help any team or company or individual to help in the maintenance of it, or to add new features, like making neutron-vpnaas work with OVN.
