UID:Gazpacho-R-7
DESCRIPTION:Extra-AC freeze\n\nAll contributions to OpenStack are valuable
 \, but some are not expressed as Gerrit code changes. That allow teams to 
 list active contributors to their projects and who do not have a code cont
 ribution this cycle\, and therefore won’t automatically be considered an
  Active Contributor and allowed to vote. This is done by adding extra-acs 
 to https://opendev.org/openstack/governance/src/branch/master/reference/pr
 ojects.yaml before the Extra-AC freeze date.\n\n\n\n2026.2 Election Nomina
 tion Open\n\nCandidates interested in serving for the next calendar year (
 TC)\, or development cycle (PTL) should announce their candidacies and pla
 tforms during this week.  Please see the Election site for specific timing
  information.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:Gazpacho-3 milestone\n\nFebruary 26\, 2026 is the Gazpacho-3 m
 ilestone. See project-specific notes for relevant deadlines.\n\n\n\nFeatur
 e freeze\n\nThe Gazpacho-3 milestone marks feature freeze for projects fol
 lowing the release:cycle-with-rc model. No featureful patch should be land
 ed after this point. Exceptions may be granted by the project PTL.\n\n\n\n
 \n\nFinal release for client libraries\n\nClient libraries should issue th
 eir final release during this week\, to match feature freeze.\n\n\n\nSoft 
 StringFreeze\n\nYou are no longer allowed to accept proposed changes conta
 ining modifications in user-facing strings. Such changes should be rejecte
 d by the review team and postponed until the next series development opens
  (which should happen when RC1 is published).\n\n\n\nRequirements freeze\n
 \nAfter the Gazpacho-3 milestone\, only critical requirements and constrai
 nts changes will be allowed. Freezing our requirements list gives packager
 s downstream an opportunity to catch up and prepare packages for everythin
 g necessary for distributions of the upcoming release. The requirements re
 main frozen until the stable branches are created\, with the release candi
 dates.\n\n\n\n2026.2 Election Email Deadline\n\nContributors that will be 
 in the electorate for the upcoming election should confirm their gerrit em
 ail addresses by this date (February 18th\, 2026 at 00:00 UTC). Electorate
  rolls are generated after this date and ballots will be sent to the liste
 d gerrit email address.\n\n\n\n2026.2 Election Campaigning Open\n\nThe ele
 ctorate has time to ask candidates questions about their platforms and deb
 ate topics before polling begins.  Please see the Election site for specif
 ic timing information.\n\n
