If we say it's just deprecated and frozen against new features, then
it's maintenance is just limited to bug fixes right?

No, any time we make a change to how the api communicates with compute,
conductor, or the scheduler, both copies of the API code have to be
changed. If we never get rid of v2 (and I don't think we have a good
reason to right now) then we're doing that *forever*. I do not want to
sign up for that.

Yeah, so objects is the big one here. And it doesn't sound like we're talking about getting rid of V2 *right now*, we're talking about deprecating it after V3 is released (plan would be Juno for nova-network and tasks) and then maintaining it for some amount of time before it could be removed, and it doesn't sound like we know what that number is until we get some input from deployers/operators.


I'm really curious what deployers like RAX, HP Cloud, etc think about
freezing V2 to features and having to deploying V3 to get them. Does RAX
expose V3 right now? Also curious if RAX/HP/etc see the V3 value
statement when compared to what it will mean for their users.

I'd also be interested to see what happens with the Keystone V2 API because as I understand it, it's deprecated already and there is no V3 support in python-keystoneclient, that's all moved to python-openstackclient, which I don't think even Tempest is using yet, at least not for API tests.

So what kind of reaction are the Keystone people getting to that? Do they plan on removing their V2 API at some point? Or just maintain it with bug fixes forever?
