== Communication ==

* Weekly meetings are held on Wednesdays at 13:00 UTC on Freenode in room #openstack-meeting-3
* The OpenStack mailing lists can also be used for communication. The [hyperv] tag should be included in email title.
* If you have any issues with the installer or code, please file a bug, or [http://ask.cloudbase.it/questions/ ask a question].

== Code ==

* The current development is now integrated within the core projects including nova, neutron, cinder, ceilometer, networking-hyperv, os-win, os-vif, os-brick, designate, and others.
* We are currently tracking and preparing for the '''Pike''' milestones.
* Bug can be filed using the standard [[OpenStack]] practices.

== OpenStack Windows Server 2012 R2 Evaluation ==

Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard Evaluation is now available as a [https://cloudbase.it/windows-cloud-images downloadable image] that can be directly deployed to the following OpenStack-supported hypervisors:

* Hyper-V
* KVM
* XenServer / XCP

''Note: This release has a specific Microsoft-provided EULA that must be accepted before download. This is an evaluation edition meant to be used in test environments only.''

== Getting Started ==

* Current documentation can be found here: [https://docs.openstack.org/ocata/config-reference/compute/hypervisor-hyper-v.html https://docs.openstack.org/ocata/config-reference/compute/hypervisor-hyper-v.html]
* An updated installer is available here: [http://www.cloudbase.it/openstack/openstack-compute-installer/ http://www.cloudbase.it/openstack/openstack-compute-installer/]
* Installer options and documentation located here: [http://www.cloudbase.it/hyper-v-nova-compute-installer-unattended-setup/ http://www.cloudbase.it/hyper-v-nova-compute-installer-unattended-setup/]

= Supported features on Hyper-V (by release) =

The latest feature set supported by Hyper-V can always be found in the [https://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/support-matrix.html Hypervisor Support Matrix]].
