[PROPOSAL] 4.20.2.0 release

Hi all,

The latest LTS version Apache CloudStack 4.20.1.0 was released on 10th
June.
Since then, around 70 issues have been fixed in the 4.20 branch.
I think it is time to create a new 4.20.2.0 release, so CloudStack users
can benefit from the work of the community.

I propose myself as the release manager of 4.20.2.0 release. The timeline
of 4.20.2.0 release is listed as below:
- Code freeze on *September 15th (2025-09-15)*. No more code changes are
accepted except for critical bug fixes (and sometimes security patches).
- Cut Release Candidate 1 (RC1) on *September 16th (2025-09-16)*.

I will manage the release through milestones on github
4.19.4: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/milestone/40 (most issues also
apply with 4.20)
4.20.2: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/milestone/39

There are lots of open issues and pull requests, please feel free to fix
the issues. or review and test the pull requests. Thank you !

If you have any questions, please let me know (by replying to this email or
mentioning @weizhouapache on github).



Kind regards,
Wei

Hi community,

Apache CloudStack 4.20.2.0 is now code-frozen. The first release candidate
RC1 will be created shortly.

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Wei

Re: [PROPOSAL] 4.20.2.0 release

Hi all,

Sorry for the late update.

All identified security issues have been resolved. We are now preparing to
create the 4.20.2.0 release again.

The new code freeze date is 15th October 2025 (23:59 UTC).
RC1 will be cut on 16th October 2025, if there are no blocker/critical
issues.

Please let me know if you have any questions or any PRs to merge.


Kind regards,
Wei
