Introduction

Welcome to the Cinder Antelope midcycle summary page!

We conduct 2 midcycles every 6 months (OpenStack release) that acts as a checkpoint for the following:

• Revisiting/following up the topics discussed at PTG
• Discuss topics that were missed during PTG due to author's unavailability or lack of time or any other reason
• Status of work items based on the milestone

There could be more reasons but the above highlighted are the major ones.
