The new features for 18.11 must be submitted before the event in Dublin,
in order to be reviewed and integrated during September.
The next version is a major target because it will be LTS,
i.e. recommended for system integration.
DPDK 18.11 is expected to be released at the beginning of November.

Thanks everyone
