Topics:
[urgent]
Prometheus Endpoint tests flakiness:
Caused by kubevirt PR#18362: Bug fix: Skip domain stats collection during live migration (and its backports)
Backport for release-1.8 branch decided to quarantine all of the entries: PR#18790
Should all of them be quarantined for main and release-1.9 too?
[dollierp] will create PRs to quarantine them
review and merge the quarantine PRs in 2 working days without SIG lgtm.

sig-compute-migrations lane flakiness is increasing:
Auto-quarantine: [kubevirt] PR#18805

state of existing issues: is:issue is:open label:kind/flake sort:updated-asc label:sig/ci
[non-urgent]
Look at flakes
Report should be improved to ignore optional lanes (i.e: k8s-1.37 currently)
[dywhite]maybe a filter option like release lanes?
[doillerp] no auto quarantine for 1.37
flake stats - create issues accordingly
