+    Eventlet usages are deprecated and the removal of Eventlet from
+    OpenStack `is planned <https://governance.openstack.org/tc//goals/proposed/remove-eventlet.html>`_,
+    for this reason, using the ``lockutils`` module of oslo.concurrency in a
+    monkey patched environment is now deprecated. The support of Eventlet will
+    be soon removed from oslo.concurrency.
+
+    Please start considering removing your internal Eventlet usages and
+    start migrating your stack.
