Hi,

As you know GA for OpenStack Queens release is approaching [1] and in RDO we are getting ready for it as described in [2]. In order to make the new release as smooth as possible we'll need some collaboration from package maintainers.

- We will be creating queens-rdo branches early next week so If you need any change in distgits in Queens packages, please send it as soon as possible to review.rdoproject.org. If branches are already created when you send  patch needed for queens, remember to cherry-pick it queens-rdo repo.

- We are building a new RDO Trunk (dlrn based) repository for queens following trunk for stable/queens branch of upstrea projects. If you are using RDO Trunk in CI jobs, note that we will switch https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos7-queens/ link to the new repo (currently it's used for builds from master) soon. This means that:

1. If you want to keep deploying from master, make sure you use https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos7-master repo.
2. If you want to deploy from queens stable branches, using https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos7-queens/ is the right way.

We'll keep you updated on the progress of these and other tasks related to Queens release. Don't hesitate to contact us in #rdo channel or mailing list [3] if you have any doubt or need any support from RDO.

Best regards,

Alfredo
