@hpdempsey do we have a date that RH is requesting that we no longer use OpenStack?

Full details on all OpenStack software are here: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/openstack/platform

MOC does not have any extended support, just standard. So the end date depends on which version you are running. Full support for 17.1 ends Dec 31 of 2024, but maintenance continues through Sept 22 2026. It is not clear whether MOC would get maintenance support or not, since it requires add-on subscriptions after 16.1. This would be something to take up as part of the license negotiations, which I am not involved in anymore.

@msdisme are you involved in the license negotiations?

It may not be necessary. Topic in Sep 9 strategy meeting.
