I think Deltacloud can stand on its own, and for purposes of the voting into the Incubator, should ignore the existing libcloud project. Libcloud however is getting closer to being able to Graduate. (hopefully in may/june?). I think it does raise the question, should libcloud graduate to a new TLP, with a more generic task or providing "cross cloud" APIs and libraries. Libcloud is already moving a little beyond just APIs, with the current discussions around a portable image format, and beyond just python with another discussion of a possible Java port of the library. Deltacloud does have some overlap in comitter-ship too, and I think fundamentally both communities share very similar interests, even if the implementations are different languages. Thoughts?
