Hello everyone, Manila and Keystone are the first projects to produce a release candidate for the end of the Liberty cycle! The RC1 tarballs, as well as a list of last-minute features and fixed bugs since liberty-1 are available at: https://launchpad.net/manila/liberty/liberty-rc1 https://launchpad.net/keystone/liberty/liberty-rc1 Unless release-critical issues are found that warrant a release candidate respin, these RC1s will be formally released as final versions on October 15. You are therefore strongly encouraged to test and validate these tarballs ! Alternatively, you can directly test the stable/liberty release branch at: http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/manila/log/?h=stable/liberty http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/keystone/log/?h=stable/liberty If you find an issue that could be considered release-critical, please file it at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/manila/+filebug or https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+filebug and tag it *liberty-rc-potential* to bring it to the release crew's attention. Note that the "master" branch of Manila and Keystone are now open for Mitaka development, and feature freeze restrictions no longer apply there ! Regards, -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)
