All existing tests were dropped - see the known issues.
Unit test / CI is migrated with Github Action.
Deployment
When using RiaB, please refer to RiaB documentation in docs.sdran.org.

Documentation
All release documentation is available at docs.sd-ran.org.
Known Issues
xApp A1 policy consistent problem: a new A1-enabled xApp should not be added if there are already A1 policies added. If it happens, the new xApp is unable to get the old A1 policies already added. The new xApp only has the A1 policies which are pushed after the xApp is deployed.
ONOS-E2T is not perfectly working with Viavi simulator.
SD-RAN/OAI CU/DU does not have the latest OAI code.
All integration, smoke, E2E tests were disabled. In the next release, we will try to make one by one with Github Action.
