BGPCEP

Robert Varga

nite@hq.sk

We have a Sodium release tracking targeted issues here: https://lf-opendaylight.atlassian.net/projects/BGPCEP/versions/10908

Overall the focus of this release is going to be stability and addressing technical debt. Contingent on NETCONF transitioning to MRI, we would like to transition to being MRI, too.

Controller

Robert Varga

nite@hq.sk

We have release tracking deliverables here: https://lf-opendaylight.atlassian.net/projects/CONTROLLER/versions/10903

Overall the focus will be on stability, with very little new features. We will be seeking a transition to being release-integrated just after the MRI integration window, so that the controller will not be part of autorelease.
