Soft Code Freeze for Fuel 8.0 is now in effect. As of now, only fixes for High and Critical severity bugs are allowed to be merged for Fuel 8.0. Shortly, Fuel Infra team will start creating stable/8.0 branches in git repositories for all Fuel components. Please wait for the announcement from the Infra team that branch creation is completed before merging any Fuel commits. Once stable/8.0 branches creation is completed, please remember to follow the bugfix backporting process and get the commits merged to the master branch before cherry-picking it to any of our stable branches.
