Open Stack

Hey everyone,

Just a quick reminder that tomorrow, June 7, is the Rocky-2 milestone.

Any projects follow the cycle-with-milestones model should propose a patch to
the openstack/releases repo before the end of the day tomorrow to have a b2
release created.

Please see the releases repo README for details on how to request a release:

https://github.com/openstack/releases/blob/master/README.rst#requesting-a-release

Note, you can also use the new-release command rather than manually editing
files. After cloning the repo, you would then run something like the following
to prepare a milestone 2 release request:

   $ tox -e venv -- new-release rocky $PROJECT milestone

If you have any questions, please stop by #openstack-release and let us know
how we can help.

** Note on README files

There has been a recent change when uploading to PyPi that will reject packages
if their long description has RST formatting errors. To guard against this, we
now have validation in place on release patches to validate this before it's
too late.

If you see failures with the validation job, most likely this will be the
cause. The README file in each repo will need to be fixed and the release
request will need to be updated to include the commit hash that includes that
update.

For further details, please see:
