Kevin, thanks for sharing. I think I understand that it is just a new way of thinking and that makes it that much harder to consume. We have good reasons for not using packages. And we're not just making this up as a new crazy idea, we're copying what companies like Netflix have published about running at scale. We need to do a better job at making sure why we're doing some of the things we're doing. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
