[ovirt-devel] Heads up: Engine 3.6.5 branching out next week

[Tal Nisan]

Hey everyone,
Around mid next week Engine 3.6.5 will be branched out from the
ovirt-engine-3.6 branch.
This gives the teams a few days of grace to be able to close 3.6.5 issues
with a single backport so now will be a good time to go over the patches in
the branch and review/verify so they can get merged.

Right after the branching out all 3.6.5 patches will have to be backported
both to the 3.6 branch and the 3.6.5 branch whereas 3.6.6 patches will be
backported to the 3.6 branch only.

Another heads up on a related issue: there are currently 38 open patches in
the 3.6 branch some of which date as far as January.
As this clutters my everyday work on the branch, right after branching out
I'm going to clear out stale patches and I'm going to keep abandoning
patches in the stable branch that are stale for too long.
Bear in mind that in 99.9% of the cases there is no reason for a patch to
be open on the stable branch for more that 2 weeks after it's merged on
master.
