  * Release:			Tuesday, 4 August 2020

  * Red Hat & Mellanox already sent roadmap, all contributors please send
    roadmap for the release.


Zoom vs Skype
-------------

* Linux foundation is providing zoom accounts and should we switch the meetings
to the Zoom, as done in the regular CI meetings?

  * It seems Skype is not performing well on Linux

  * There can be some limitations using Zoom for some companies

  * jitsi can be an alternative

  * We will give it a try, @John & @Thomas will handle the details and will
    communicate the change

    * In next a few meetings we will keep the Skype open to prevent confusions


20.05 retrospective
-------------------

* We should do regular, weekly, merges from sub-trees.

* Latest gcc support

  * We should have CI support to test latest compiler versions early.

  * Travis ovsbuild has these tests, but we need script to report result
    to patchwork.

* Getting patch late in the release is increasing the risk, what can be done?

* Should we be more strict on the dates, to prevent perception that future
  dates will shift?

* Doc maintainership, this requires some unique skills and @John is doing good
  job but we need additional maintainers to help him.


LTS
---

  * v19.11.3-rc1 will be out next week, need to synchronize the validation
    effort for it

  * v18.11.9-rc1 will have similar schedule
