 Set-up is split in a series of steps (setup stages), which can be overwritten
 by test classes. Set-up stages are:

 Tear-down is also split in a series of steps (teardown stages), which are

 reached during the setup phase. Tear-down stages are:

+    This release is marking the end of Kilo release support in Tempest
+other:
+    - OpenStack Releases Supported after this release are **Liberty**
+      and **Mitaka**
+
+      The release under current development as of this tag is Newton,
+      meaning that every Tempest commit is also tested against master during
+      the Newton cycle. However, this does not necessarily mean that using
+      Tempest as of this tag will work against a Newton (or future releases)
+      cloud.
