Welcome back to our regular release countdown email. Development Focus ----------------- Teams should be focusing on planning what can be done for Rocky. General Information ------------------- All teams should review their release liaison information and make sure it is up to date [1]. [1] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/CrossProjectLiaisons While reviewing liaisons, this would also be a good time to make sure your declared release model matches the project's plans for Rocky (e.g. [2]). This should be done prior to the first milestone and can be done by proposing a change to the Rocky deliverable file for the project(s) affected [3].

Most project-specific etherpads, along with all the details on the process, can be found in Mike's posting to the openstack-dev mailing list [4]. Please take some time to think of any topics that would help make the Forum a successful and productive event.

Keep in mind, this is just the initial ranking of choices and must go through vetting for trademark and other issues that may result voting winners from being disqualified. Expect to hear more finalized details soon.
