[nova] Proposing EOL of nova project's old stable branches (Stein, Rocky, Queens)
Hi, At the 2023.1 Antelope PTG, Nova team discussed that currently open Queens, Rocky and Stein branches for Nova teams' repositories will be moved to End of Life. There are multiple reasons behind this decision: - gate of these branches are broken for a couple of months now - zuul job definitions for these branches use the pre-"zuul-v3" [1] style, which makes the maintenance harder of these jobs - CI on Rocky and Queens use Ubuntu Xenial, which is also beyond its public maintenance window date And last but not least bugfix backports to these branches don't really get enough reviews anymore. If anyone has any interest to keep any of the above branches open then this is the last opportunity to step up, otherwise, as Nova team decided on the PTG, these branches will transition to End of Life. Please let us know before November 7th, we will proceed with the transition in case no responses will come till that day.
