The only PR that is currently showing in blocker status is : https://github=
.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2062

Are there others that should be tagged?

Rajani,


Can we have a list of outstanding blockers/issues?


I also saw some enhancement PRs merged, which I think we should be avoiding=
 and instead have our resources spent on fixing the release blockers, thank=
s.


Regards.

I disagree. The release process is taking long because we dont
have enough people working on the release. Sometimes, even the
blockers don't get enough attention. There is no point in adding
features on already broken/blocked master which is not
releasable. "un-freezing" master for new features shouldn't be
the goal in my opinion. We should move towards faster
releases/release cycles.

Thanks,

~ Rajani

LS,

In a lot of occasions, we have seen new features that are
waiting for releases with blocker bugs and while these bugs
certainly must be solved, users that are not hindered by those
bugs directly are stopped by them. Therefore, I propose we will
fork on the first RC branches for future releases, so that
development is not stopped for it. If the release process takes
too long and to nice features get merged in between we can always
decide to re-branch before releasing.

Thoughts..?
