[rdo-list] Baremetal Tripleo stable version?

[Pedro Sousa]

Hi Christopher,

thank you, I'll test it out.

According with my interpretation from documentation, mitaka version is made
from nightly builds, as the "stable" version is from liberty.

Maybe someone from rdo can clarify this.

Anyway, both seem broken right now, like you I test this in baremetal for
deploying in production, not in virtual environments.

Regards
