Openstack Freeze Process

PTL Actions

Notice

Email the developer mailing list approximately two weeks before the freeze. This email should contain a notice that requirements will branch and cycle-trailing projects should be careful if they have not branched. The cycle-trailing projects can retarget their constraints usage to the stable branch.

Branch

File a review in openstack/releases with -W and only remove the -W when ready to branch.
Once branched, change the publish location to the new release branch.
Once branched, update devstack grenade for the new release. For example, use https://review.openstack.org/#/c/493057/13/devstack-vm-gate-wrap.sh

Potential issues

Use something like https://review.openstack.org/#/c/492382 to find problem projects.
