We re not trying to fulfill this requirement; although we are very aware of it. 
It is planned for Dublin, and won’t get in Casablanca; this is not the 
intention.
We’re not either changing any of the existing behaviour.
I’m not proposing any solution here, simply asking for an API waiver as we need 
to add a field in GR-API yang to get rid of the hard coded cloud owner in the 
new SO BB. The solution has been there before, it’s just lack of time before 
API freeze, and in this matter, introducing a regression.

Background:
SO and SDNC added respectively new Building Blocks and support for GR-API, in 
order to avoir having to perform the manual preload step. With these new flows, 
at assignment stage, all the required ressources would get resolved by SDNC and 
stored in SDNC GR-API, so at creation stage, all SO has to do is query SDNC to 
gets the resources to use, and proceed with creation.
What was uncover late is SO new BBs are using a hard coded cloud owner. The 
change is simply to allow having that cloud owner configurable. It is a 
small/quick fix in order to provide somewhat of a feature parity between former 
SO flow and new SO flows.

I’m asking the TSC for an API waiver as we're pass API freeze and this is an 
API change, in some ways.  If you want to discuss more in detail that 
functionality, I’ll be happy to explain over a meeting.
My intention is to have a quick turnaround on the API change waiver request. I 
hope TSC will be able to see the urgency in that matter, given RC0, so we don’t 
debate too much on a requirement, as as stated before, we’re not trying to 
fulfil any; simply to fix a regression.

Thanks,
Alexis
