[openstack-dev] [Cinder] Cutoff deadlines for cinder drivers

Hi guys,

Thanks for answering my questions. I have 2 points:

1 - This (remove drivers without CI) is a way impacting change to be
implemented without exhausting notification and discussion on the mailing
list. I myself was in the meeting but this decision wasn't crystal clear.
There must be other driver maintainers completely unaware of this.

2 - Build a CI infrastructure and have people to maintain a the CI for a
new driver in a 5 weeks frame. Not all companies has the knowledge and
resources necessary to this in such sort period. We should consider a grace
release period, i.e. drivers entering on K, have until L to implement
theirs CIs.
