For the record, I wouldn't say release management (as a role) is strained. I'm strained, but that's because I do more than just release management. We are taking steps to grow the team (both at release management program level and at foundation development coordination levels) that should help in that area. Oslo has some growth issues but I think they are under control. Stable maint (which belongs to the release management program, btw) needs more a restructuration that a resource injection. I think the most strained function is keeping on top of test failures (which is most case is just about investigating, reproducing and fixing rare issues bugs). It's a complex task, it falls somewhere between QA and Infra right now, and the very few resources that have the unique combination of knowledge and will/time to spend on those is quickly dying of burnout. -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
