[cinder] feature freeze and FFEs
I wasn't paying close enough attention to the "real life" calendar, and did not realize that we would be so short-handed on reviewers around the Feature Freeze, with a lot of people unavailable. So, I am granting Feature Freeze Exceptions to the following. To make it into Ussuri, these should be merged by noon UTC on Friday 17 April. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/sf-aa-support - looks good, but I really want to allow time for one of our A/A HA experts to take a final look https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/copy-image-in-multiple-stores - this may need a minor revision, but otherwise looks OK https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/nfs-volume-encryption - some questions have come up about testing this one. We should decide by mid-week whether it still looks good for Ussuri or not. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/macrosan-driver-supported - this patch includes adding support for some new functionality and hence is subject to the feature freeze; needs a minor revision and release note; third-party CI appears functional. Problems need to be addressed very early next week, or this may wind up slipping to Victoria. The following blueprint contains multiple patches that have all been approved. Two haven't been able to merge; they require a rebase and conflict resolution. I expect that they will all merge early next week, but technically they require an FFE (which is granted). https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/unity-ussuri-features The following blueprints are not yet marked 'Implemented', but the outstanding work is not subject to the feature freeze (mostly verification of stable third-party CI and then marking drivers as 'supported' or 'unsupported', which by Cinder policy must be done by RC-1). I just want to mention them so no one freaks out about not having an FFE. (You don't need one.) https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/add-sandstone-driver https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/cinder-nimble-driver https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/datera-driver-restoration https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/ibm-gpfs-supported https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/restore-unsupported-drivers If I missed anything, please apply for a FFE by the usual method, that is, an email with the subject '[cinder] FFE request' before 18:00 UTC on Tuesday 14 April.
