        - Reminder: stx.3.0 release branch will be created on 11/28
        - Once created, all stx.3.0 gating bugs needs to be merged in master and then cherry-picked by the developer to the release branch
        - Test teams to schedule sanity and move all stx.3.0 test activities to the stx.3.0 builds.
        - stx.3.0 Gating Bugs
            - https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bugs?search=Search&field.tags_combinator=ALL&field.tag=stx.3.0
            - The current count is 61 -- down from 80 last week
            - Good progress! Let's continue this momentum.

            - update: 1 (no change) https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bugs?search=Search&field.tags_combinator=ALL&field.tag=stx.3.0+stx.update
            - There are 23 bugs that are older than 100 days
                - These are medium priority bugs that were moved from stx.2.0 to stx.3.0
                - Request each sub-project team to review to determine if these are still valid
                - Some requests sent to the reporters (if part of the test team) for re-test
                - Ghada: No point in moving these again to stx.4.0 if not addressed by stx.3.0
                - Community agrees that moving this set to stx.4.0 is not a good idea.
                - The current recommendation is to keep them open, but mark them not-gating / low priority.
        - Regression Test Update: (Requested from Elio)
              - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X085xI96M6PIeum87w6IEF11G-TG-W1OeGuAJWnrAWI/edit#gid=1717644237

    - Unit Test 
         - per http://lists.starlingx.io/pipermail/starlingx-discuss/2019-October/006710.html
         - each sub-project to consider a similar path as what was followed by Config 
         - what level/type of automation testing would provide most benefit to the sub-project - applicability, address current lack of coverage, other considerations
         - what area of the sub-project's code is most in need of additional coverage - heat map of issues, rate of change, desire to 'open' to non-experts 
         - where should the sub-project invest to increase/maintain quality while enabling contributions 
         - what work is required - example testcases, documentation, test infrastructure to lower the bar for writing effective unit tests?

    - Doc Process re: http://lists.starlingx.io/pipermail/starlingx-discuss/2019-November/006985.html
    - Dev Process: what's the process for modifying this process? re: http://lists.starlingx.io/pipermail/starlingx-discuss/2019-November/007020.html
