[edk2-devel] edk2-stable201905 features and soft/hard freeze and release date

[Michael D Kinney]

Hello,

There have been a few discussion during the soft freeze for
edk2-stable201905 on changes that can be accepted or not.

The TianoCore Stewards met today to discuss these topics and
make some decisions on the following features.

* Update OpenSSL version to upcoming 1.1.1
  https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1089

  This feature must be completed for edk2-stable201905.
  We are willing to extend the soft freeze, hard freeze,
  and release date to make sure this feature is completed.
  Please complete the patches and reviews and perform all
  validation required for this feature and provide status
  to the mailing list.  The release date will be pushed out
  if required to accommodate this feature.

* Move network related components from MdeModulePkg to NetworkPkg
  https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1293

  Updating MdeModulePkg to remove the extra build of the network
  modules is considered low risk and should be completed for 
  edk2-stable201905.

* Standardize EDK II PI root-of-trust verification implementation
  https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1617

  Move to edk-stable201908

* FeatureFlagExpression Support in LibraryClasses section of INF file
  https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1446

  Move to edk-stable201908

* Add new tool chain for LLVM/CLANG8.0
  https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1603

  Move to edk-stable201908

Please let us know if there are any other features that require
consideration for edk2-stable201905.

Of course critical bug fixes are accepted during the soft/hard
freeze.  If there is any doubt if a patch is a bug fix or a 
feature, please ask before doing any commits.

Thanks,

Mike
