| 5 | DevStack has evolved to support a large number of configuration options |
| 6 | and alternative platforms and support services. That evolution has grown |
| 7 | well beyond what was originally intended and the majority of |
| 8 | configuration combinations are rarely, if ever, tested. DevStack is not |
| 9 | a general OpenStack installer and was never meant to be everything to |

| 12 | Below is a list of what is specifically is supported (read that as |
| 13 | "tested") going forward. |

| 21 | *The OpenStack Technical Committee (TC) has defined the current CI |
| 22 | strategy to include the latest Ubuntu release and the latest RHEL |
| 23 | release (for Python 2.6 testing).* |
| 24 | |
| 25 | - Ubuntu: current LTS release plus current development release |
| 26 | - Fedora: current release plus previous release |
| 27 | - RHEL: current major release |
| 28 | - Other OS platforms may continue to be included but the maintenance of |
| 29 | those platforms shall not be assumed simply due to their presence. |
| 30 | Having a listed point-of-contact for each additional OS will greatly |
| 31 | increase its chance of being well-maintained. |
| 32 | - Patches for Ubuntu and/or Fedora will not be held up due to |
| 33 | side-effects on other OS platforms. |

| 89 | The DevStack exercise scripts are no longer used as integration and gate |
| 90 | testing as that job has transitioned to Tempest. They are still |
| 91 | maintained as a demonstrations of using OpenStack from the command line |
| 92 | and for quick operational testing. |
