[Starlingx-discuss] Heads Up: r/stx.8.0 release branch to be created on Feb 6

Hello all, The current plan is to create the stx.8.0 release branch (r/stx.8.0) on Feb 6. This is a request to developers and core reviewers to give priority to stx.8.0 gating bugs and to avoid large churn in the next few days so that no new build/sanity issues are introduced. Once the branch is created, any open bugs that are gating stx.8.0 will need to be sourced in the main branch and then cherrypicked to the release branch. A list of stx.8.0 gating bugs is available from this query: https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bugs?field.tag=stx.8.0 Thanks, Ghada
