List of examples where separately released backwards compatible odlparent is slowing down development velocity (weeks and months, not days)

The remaining issue there is that merging the patches still involves too much work (for LF releng and/or odlparent committers). The load increases as we near a release since we need version convergence, which means that an oldparent bump involves cascading releases of all release-based projects.</p> Relates ODLPARENT-136 ODLPARENT-144 INFRAUTILS-27 INFRAUTILS-41 Development ODL Project odlparent ODL Release Fluorine Rank 0|i03f1z:
