Do we have freeze exception process in terms of stable branches documented anywhere on wiki?
We don't, the whole freeze and exception process existed only as a lore on the mailing list, I guess it's time to codify it.
Here's proposal to put under https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StableBranch#Releases
The stable-maint and release teams work together to publish point releases from the stable branch. SeeStableBranchRelease for details about how these releases are prepared. + +One week before the planned point release, stable release manager will announce that stable branch is frozen +to allow testing before the release. Freeze exceptions can be proposed on openstack-stable-maint list where +stable-maint team will try to reach consensus. +
Also not codified is the exception process for rule-breaking changes, what about this at the end of https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StableBranch#Appropriate_Fixes
* Incompatible config file changes + +Proposed backports breaking any of above guidelines can be discussed as an exception requests on +openstack-stable-maint list where stable-maint team will try to reach consensus. +
Cheers, Alan
