stx.5.0
- Release Milestone - Plan: May 5 / we are about a week behind. 
       - Need to wait for the high priority gating bugs
       - Some code cherrypicks are also outstanding
- Sanity
       - Sanity for 5.0 is yellow.
       - Two LPs:
            - https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1918420   -- marked as stx.5.0 / fix up for review / wait for this fix
            - https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1918318 
                        - This issue was reported intermittently in stx.4.0 as well. Typically, the alarm raised points to some openstack pods not recovering
                        - Action: Need to understand the frequency of occurrence in stx.5.0. Prime: Alexandru
- Build
       - stx.5.0 ISO builds are builiding fine w/o issues.
       - Docker builds have been failing on stx.5.0
            - There was an issue with the build picking the wrong manifests. This was addressed by Scott  on May 4.
                      - https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1926984 
            - There are 5 images failing to build, but newer versions of those are not required for stx.5.0. There are no code changes. Older tags from stx.4.0 are used.
                      - https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1927153
