The StarlingX release branch 'r/stx.2.0' has been created as of the latest GREEN sanity build 20190804T233000Z. We branched on the exact state used in that build so no merge freeze was required. Nor were any reviews merged on master since that build so no initial backports are required. As a reminder, from now until the 2.0 release bugs marked HIGH and MEDIUM are eligible to be backported to r/stx.2.0 after merging in master. After the 2.0 release, only those marked HIGH will continue to be eligible to be backported to this branch. Exceptions must be approved by the Release Team. Also, a tag 'v2.0.0.rc0' was created at the branch point to simplify listing the changes since then on both the release branch and on master. Each new branch also has a new review to update the .gitreview file, these should be the first things merged into the new branch, approvals are already underway, please look for any in repos where you may be on the core team to ensure they get approved. If you see any problems related to this do not hesitate to ask here, contact me or any of the release team members or ask in IRC #starlingx. Thanks dt -- Dean Troyer dtroyer@gmail.com
