Hi， Ferruh Yigit
We plan to send the roadmap, but we're not sure what it requires? Is
it per vendor or per PMD vendor? What should he contain?
Thanks

20.11 retrospective
-------------------
(I tried to summarize as best as I can, please free to correct/add when
needed)
* What went well
* Managed to get out this very big release on time
* Was more precise with dates
* Expectations on features were more clear in this release
* Good co-working between maintainers
* Communication was better, project become more resilient
* Akhil commented last minute stress was less
* Major gcc distribution didn't cause disruption this time
* LTS is doing good job overall
* Thanks to Luca and Kevin for their work there
* Things to improve
* next-net is busy, %60+ of the commits coming from next-net,
would be good to get more help, options to improve
* Add a co-maintainer in that level
* Andrew (backup maintainer) is great candidate if he can spare time
He is already helping on reviews
* He already covered during release when Ferruh is on holiday
* Testpmd maintainership is not working fine, find maintainers for it
* Should we add more vendor trees?
* Huawei is contributing more, should it have a vendor sub-tree?
* Huawei is being good citizen mostly
* CI can be improved
* Top level Thomas/David may felt the last minute stress more this time
* Pachwork update by Jerin, to add reviewer column may help
* This seems not exactly matching patchwork intention of using
delegate
field
* Need to work on how to upstream this improvement
* It is causing more problem when expectation is not clear from
vendors
* Security issues
* They didn't work very well, the busy release is affecting it
* Good thing is there is a well defined process, needs resource
to execute
* Can help to allocate separate resource for it
* A technical project manager can do it, doesn't have to be
developer
LTS
