Comment 15 for bug 1787760

Per the timeline, https://launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+series, Queens' status is 'Current Stable Release' and Rocky's status is 'Supported.' Also, Ussari's status is ' Pre-release Freeze' Is this information correct?

If there is a way to extend support for those releases that have defects, that would alleviate upgrade concerns. For example, Rocky has 12 new and 4 in-progress defects which would be a concern if I were to be upgrading to Rocky. These defects would not necessarily be an issue if a test environment was being upgraded but upgrading a production environment is a different story.

Importantly though, there are often on-going defects in the underlying services, unrelated to Kolla-ansible, which can cause issues/make upgrading not an immediate option. Removing support for kolla-ansible prior to these underlying services resolving defects is a risky upgrade strategy in a production environment. I appreciate your support and responses to issues/questions.
