The OpenStack Foundation bylaws mandate the following: The Technical Committee shall designate a subset of the OpenStack Project an “OpenStack Technical Committee Approved Release” from time to time. The Board of Directors may determine "Trademark Designated OpenStack Software" from time to time, which will be a subset of the "OpenStack Technical Committee Approved Release". Therefore it is necessary that capabilities and designated sections used in trademark guidelines are chosen from a superset of projects code and features designated by the TC and called "the TC-approved Release". This change proposes to introduce the "TC-approved release" in the Defcore process to make sure we don't miss that critical step. Change-Id: Ie99c6ae7f9da590469a22155ccb286d789cc0ebf
