Open Stack

I would like to make a plea that while Juno is locked down so as no changes can be made against it, the branch remains on the git.openstack.org site.  Please?  One area that could be better investigated with the branch in place is upgrade.  Kilo will continue to get patches, as will Liberty, so an occasional grenade run (once a week?  more often?  Less often) could help operators understand what is in store for them when they finally can upgrade from Juno.  Yes, it will require occasional resources for the run, but I think this is one of the cheapest forms of insurance in support of the installed base of users, before a Stable Release team is put together.

My $.02
