Octavia-diskimage-retrofit 1.0 track creation

Hi!

This snap has no existing tracks, so per Process for aliases, auto-connections and tracks , we need a 1-week voting/discussion period, so I’ll check back on the discussion and votes in a few days. I recognize you requested the track several days ago, so I’ll try to expedite this as to not block you.

I have the usual questions before casting my vote:

  1. What’s the purpose of this snap? :slight_smile:
  2. What’s the release cadence, how often is a new version (potentially requiring a new track) released? is this documented somewhere by upstream? Are you the upstream? :slight_smile:
  3. What’s the intended usage of tracks here? Will you create a new track for each upstream major release?
  4. Is there some commitment from upstream on maintenance of old versions?
  5. Are new versions backwards-incompatible? Meaning, once e.g. 1.1 or 2.0 come out, are people expected to upgrade or are there configuration or data incompatibilities which make an automatic update undesirable?

Thanks!
