A number +of fundamental changes need to be made to OSC to properly support +things like fully utilizing os-client-config and its clouds.yaml +configurations and properly supporting microversions. These changes +will have subtle impacts to backward-compatibility that force a +major version update. + +This all comes at a time when many smaller projects are seeing a +dropoff in contributions. For OSC this can be partially attributed +to the well-known business decisions of some of our member companies, +but it is also an indication that the core of OSC is nearing completion. +There will always be upstream changes that need to be chased but +thanks to the work of a number of contributors the backlog of missing +commands/features is as small as it has ever been. + +Most of all, I want to see us continue our mission of providing a +(wait for it...) consistent interface to OpenStack via the CLI. +Sometimes this means changing how we think about certain operations +in individual projects, sometimes it means providing direction for new +operations, and mostly it means finding the common ground that makes +our users lives simpler. + +I thank you and am honored by your support. +
