stx.4.0
- Ussuri Status >> MS-3 Status
      - Monolithic Build is successful with Ussuri
      - However, sanity is red:
            - mariadb issue
                  - https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1886003 
                  - Fix is in progress; still under testing. Need this fix to merge to enable sanity.  This is the remaining item to declare MS-3
            - keystone issue
                  - This is only an issue w/ using the latest openstack helm charts
                  - It's not an issue if using the versioned openstack helm charts
                  - This appears to be an  issue related to the sanity envirnoment, not an actual s/w issue. Sanity will use the versioned charts.
      - Layered Build
            - As per Nick, the layered build looks to be pointing to older helm charts:  20200505T204039Z
            - The charts  from MONOLITHIC have a newer version: 20200701T054008Z
            - Nick to open an LP: https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1886094 

- Feature Test Update
      - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1C9n4aRQT7xMyTDCT5sfuZGNI9ermAX5BYRypzcCpQ6U/edit#gid=968103774 
      - Remaining feature test:
            - FPGA Integration - Done
            - TSN Support in Kata container - In Progress
                  - Had to re-do the setup. Also found some issues w/ documentation. 
                  - Progressing, but not sure when this will be done.
            - Openstack Rebase to Ussuri - Blocked on red sanity issue
                  - Total TCs were 73, but will look to reduce those to focus on only openstack-related test-cases.

- Regression Test Update
      - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gA3bnLS7aY2y8dKxm4MuqpWyELq3PVJMYtiHn4IWiAk/edit#gid=1717644237 
      - Not much progress
      - Confirmed that 2 weeks are still required after Ussuri is functional. New Fcst: 7/21

- RC1
      - Agreed that we need a green sanity before we branch.
      - Tools are ready. Saul is ready to start on Tuesday 7/7 assuming a green sanity.

- Release Date moved by one week to 07/24

stx.3.x
- Davlet is working on addressing docker build issues reported on the branch
- Davlet also needs to update the Jenkins on CENGN to build an rc maintenance release
- There is one kernel CVE that is also in progress. Fcst: 7/10
- Agreed to give priority to stx.4.0 and tackle 3.0.1 after to avoid resource contention
