• #topic Open discussion
  • (artom) Can we revisit stable func test backport policy? Specific patch stack: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/791480/1 Previously we didn't want to backport func test infrastructure because it just offloads the backport debt onto whoever is doing backport for older than train releases. Some time has passed now, are there still operators running < stable/train and needing backports? https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/r.ea2e9bd003ed5aed5e25cd8393cf9362 indicates a majority of "train or older", but how many are on the "older" half of that?
  • (bauzas) Opportunities for low-hanging-fruits, anyone ? (only if we have time left)
