Hi, As you probably know, the Mitaka Release schedule for Nova defines a first milestone between Dec 1-3 [1] We had an hard dependency for translations and reno changes [2] but now everything is landed in tree. As a consequence, the release patch is provided for cutting the milestone right after the reno changes [3] unless we identify a new blocker for the milestone that hasn't been raised at the moment I write this e-mail. In case you identify a bugfix that sounds critical for the release (like a regression fix), please raise hand on the #openstack-nova IRC channel until tomorrow Dec 2nd 1200 UTC. Past that time, we'll ask for merging [3]. Thanks, -Sylvain [1] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Nova/Mitaka_Release_Schedule [2] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-November/080692.html [3] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/251805/
