Swift absolutely and without a doubt participates in OpenStack releases. OpenStack releases on a six-month cadence, and Swift participates in this integrated release (as do all other OpenStack projects).
In between the OpenStack integrated releases, Swift differs from some other OpenStack projects by not doing milestone releases. Instead, Swift releases stable, production-ready versions. All Swift releases use a semantic versioning scheme. Currently we're on 1.12.0 and our next release will be 1.13. We have a release of Swift near the end of the six-month OpenStack cycle that is included in the integrated release. For example, OpenStack Havana included Swift 1.10. I hope this clears things up. --John On Feb 20, 2014, at 10:48 AM, Shrinand Javadekar <shrin...@maginatics.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I know that Swift releases do not necessarily coincide with major > Openstack releases (like Grizzly, Havana, etc.). > > 1) Does Swift have a fixed release cadence? > > 2) Also, I see that the current releases are all versioned as 1.XY. > Does this mean that these are minor releases and some major Swift > release will happen sometime soon when the version # will be bumped to > 2.0? > > We develop software that uses Swift as backend storage.
