All, Per https://wiki.fd.io/view/Projects/vpp/Release_Plans/Release_Plan_18.04,
Milestone Date Deliverables F0 2018-03-21 APIs frozen. Only low-risk changes accepted on main branch. VPP 18.04 is now at milestone F0. This means no more API changes will be considered in master by committers until after the branch for RC1 on April 4th. Additionally we avoid merging "risky" changes into master until the branch, unless there is reasonable justification. Chris.
