Sorry Russell but I have to ask, what is the different you see between "traditional datacenter virtualization" and "cloud". IMHO the two co-exist and Cloud (the buzz word that it is) is the umbrella for all encompassing data center. That said im still missing why this would not be a useful feature for us?

The need for this sort of thing makes more sense for traditional datacenter virtualization, but not as much for cloud. That's the root of my objection. -- Russell Bryant _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
