Development Focus ----------------- We are on the final mile of the Yoga development cycle! Remember that the Yoga final release will include the latest release candidate (for cycle-with-rc deliverables) or the latest intermediary release (for cycle-with-intermediary deliverables) available. March 24th is the deadline for final Yoga release candidates as well as any last cycle-with-intermediary deliverables. We will then enter a quiet period until we tag the final release on March 30th. Teams should be prioritizing fixing release-critical bugs, before that deadline. Otherwise it's time to start planning the Zed development cycle, including discussing PTG sessions content, in preparation of Virtual PTG @ April 4-8. Actions ------- Watch for any translation patches coming through on the stable/yoga branch and merge them quickly. If you discover a release-critical issue, please make sure to fix it on the master branch first, then backport the bugfix to the stable/yoga branch before triggering a new release. Please drop by #openstack-release with any questions or concerns about the upcoming release ! Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Final Yoga release: March 30th, 2022 Next PTG: April 4 - 8, 2022 (virtual) OpenInfra Summit: June 7-9, 2022 (Berlin) Előd Illés irc: elodilles
