Hey I've been struggling to stay on top of stable/folsom stuff lately so Alan is going to help out with the next release with a view taking responsibility for future releases. 2012.2.4 is due for release on 2013-04-11, so we'd like a release candidate on 2013-04-04. That gives us two weeks to prepare. This will likely be the last release in the 2012.2.x series. There are notes on the release process here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StableBranchRelease The first thing I do is make sure all of the currently fixed bugs are added to the folsom series and targeted to the next release. There are 47 bugs currently fixed, and I've listed them all here: https://gist.github.com/markmc/5202793 I also make sure the assignee and priority fields are correct so the final release page is nice and pretty e.g. https://launchpad.net/nova/folsom/2012.2.3 Finally, I go through the folsom-backport-potential and in-stable-folsom tags and remove them from bugs which don't need them anymore. It's actually not too bad to do all this by hand, but maybe it's a good opportunity to improve our scripts: https://github.com/markmc/openstack-lp-scripts https://github.com/ttx/openstack-releasing In order to add bugs to the folsom, you need to be a member of the openstack-release team so I'll ask ttx to do that. Beyond bugs, we also need to get a handle on outstanding reviews. Currently, there are 37 open reviews. Thanks, Mark.
