Releases

The code was first posted in July of 2010, and the first release (nicknamed “Austin”) was released to the public in November 2010. Following a short three-month development cycle, the second release (codenamed “Bexar” but pronounced “Bear”) debuted in February 2011, followed by “Cactus” in April, 2011.

Note

Release names are decided by popular vote by the community of developers from a pool of city names near the site of the next OpenStack Developers Summit. For example, The Diablo release was named after Diablo, California, which is (somewhat) near Santa Clara, California, the site of the 2011 Spring OpenStack Developer Summit. In late June 2011, the developers choose the name “Essex” for the fifth release of OpenStack. Essex, Massachusetts is about 30 miles north of Boston, the announced site for the Fall 2011 OpenStack Developers Summit.
