Re: [dpdk-dev] [dpdk-stable] v17.11.5-rc2 patches review and test

[Yongseok Koh <yskoh@mellanox.com>]

Hi, all

17.11.5 is so much delayed and according to Intel, their verification
for 17.11.5 would be done in late Feb.

As I got okay from Mellanox and RedHat, I'd like to release it without
more test results. As 19.02 has already been released, I should work
on 17.11.6 right now. Given that, vendors that plan to test 17.11.5 can
test 17.11.6 instead.

If there's no serious objection till early next week, I'll announce 17.11.5.


Thanks,
Yongseok
