Hi, Today is Feature Freeze for Ussuri and the final release of novaclient for Ussuri. Release TODOs are tracked in [1]. Any feature code in nova that is approved before end of today is OK to be rechecked or rebased if needed after the freeze. Features that are close to land but haven't approved until the freeze, needs a Feature Freeze Exception on the ML or they will be postponed to the Victoria cycle. When you request such FFE please try to find cores who support your request. Bug fixes, test coverage and documentation enhancements are still OK to be proposed after the freeze. However please be careful approving risky patches. Any release blocker issue should have a bug tagged with ussuri-rc-potential in launchpad. Please also add them the the etherpad [1] Cheers, gibi [1] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/nova-ussuri-rc-potential
