Hello all:

Over the past two RDO Community meetings [0], we've discussed the pros and cons of having fewer official test days. Traditionally, we aim to conduct a set of Test Days the Thursday / Friday after every official milestone based on the upstream schedule [1] - thus M1, M2, M3, and GA. It was proposed and accepted that we have fewer test days - M2 and GA - starting now, which means this week's Test Days Rocky M3 is cancelled.

However, GA is 27-31 August which means that RDO's Rocky GA is normally the following Thursday / Friday [2]. As this is the week before OpenStack PTG [3], I propose we shift our Rocky GA Test Days to Wednesday / Thursday [4].

As always, I'm super keen for your input / opinions / questions regarding this; please don't hesitate to reply to this thread and contribute to this decision.
