Highlights from this week's CLT meeting 16.2.9, a hotfix release, is being published to address a regression(https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/55687) that was reported against 16.2.8. To avoid such issues in the future, we intend to make the code review process stricter for backport PRs making locking related changes. We also intend to expedite large scale testing in teuthology for point releases. There was some discussion around simplifying multi-mds upgrades, more discussion to happen in the dev mailing list thread "Alternate Multi-MDS Upgrade Procedure". We now have the ability to publish releases using release branches vs from stable release branches, which simplifies the hotfix process. This new procedure eliminates the need for us to block merges to stable branches during point release cycles. 16.2.9 will be released using this procedure. The rename of the master branch to main has been delayed due to upstream lab issues. It is scheduled to happen on May 24.
