Development Focus
-----------------

The Zed-2 milestone is next week, on July 14th, 2022! Zed-related
specs should now be finalized so that teams can move to implementation
ASAP. Some teams observe specific deadlines on the second milestone
(mostly spec freezes): please refer to
https://releases.openstack.org/zed/schedule.html for details.

General Information
-------------------

Libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. Next
week, the release team will propose releases for any library that has not
been otherwise released since milestone 1. PTL's and release liaisons,
please watch for these and give a +1 to acknowledge them. If there is
some reason to hold off on a release, let us know that as well. A +1
would be appreciated, but if we do not hear anything at all by the end
of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed.

Remember that non-library deliverables that follow the
cycle-with-intermediary release model should have an intermediary
release before milestone-2. Those who haven't will be proposed to switch
to the cycle-with-rc model, which is more suited to deliverables that
are released only once per cycle.

Next week is also the deadline to freeze the contents of the final
release. All new 'Zed' deliverables need to have a deliverable file
in https://opendev.org/openstack/releases/src/branch/master/deliverables
and need to have done a release by milestone-2.

Changes proposing those deliverables for inclusion in Zed have been
posted, please update them with an actual release request before the
milestone-2 deadline if you plan on including that deliverable in Zed,
or -1 if you need one more cycle to be ready.
