Please note: This schedule is for OpenStack Active Technical Contributors participating in the Icehouse Design Summit sessions in Hong Kong. These are working sessions to determine the roadmap of the Icehouse release and make decisions across the project. To see the full OpenStack Summit schedule, including presentations, panels and workshops, go to http://openstacksummitnovember2013.sched.org.
In this session we'll review the current state of stable branch maintenance and review potential process evolution:
- fewer supported releases ? - dependency capping ? - need for point releases ? - accepted patches ? - relationship with security maintenance ?
Any downstream consumer interested in sharing the load of handling bugfix backport should join us to discuss the best way to solve this as a community.
