Updates

Pike is official! [10]
Outreachy Call for Mentors and Sponsors! [11]
- More info here[12]
- Next round runs December 5th to March 5th
Libraries published to pypi with YYYY.X.Z versions[13]
- During Kilo when the neutron vendor decomposition happened, the release version was set to 2015.1.0 for basically all of the networking projects
- Main issue is that networking-hyperv == 2015.1.0 is currently on Pypi and whenever someone upgrades through pip, it ‘upgrades’ to 2015.1.0 because its considered the latest version
- Should that version be unpublished?
- Three options[14]
  - Unpublish- simplest, but goes against policy of pypi never unpublishing
    - +1 from tonyb, made a rough list of others to unpublish that need to be confirmed with PTL’s before passing to infra to unpublish[15]
  - Rename- a bunch of work for downstreams, but cleaner than unpublishing
  - Reversion- Start new versions at 3000 or something, but very hacky and ugly
- dhellman, ttx, and fungi think that deleting it from pypi is the simplest route though not the typically recommended way of handling things

- Work to make devstack only have a single execution mode- same between automated QA & local- is almost done!
