You're far from the only one who feels this way. It should be noted, however, that it would appear that the Oslo team is trying to graduate some more of the modules into separate libraries. I talked to someone about the process, and they said that the Oslo team is trying to graduate the "lowest" libraries on the dependency chart first, so that any graduated libraries will have olso.xyz dependencies, and not code-sync dependencies.

Worth noting that there have been a few cases of projects patching OSLO bugs intheir own tree rather than fixing in OSLO then resyncing. If anybody has any tooling that can detect that, I'd love to see the results. I'm generally of the opinion that cinder is likely to be resistant to more parts of OSLO being used in cinder unless they are a proper library - syncs have caused us significant pain, code churn, review load and bugs in the last 12 months. I am but one voice among many, but I know I'm not the only member of core who feels this to be the case. Hopefully I can spend some time with OSLO core at the summit and discuss the problems I've found. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev Duncan, I will come with you for that discussion. :-) Have some thoughts and questions to share as well. Regardless, I think we need to make sure to actually get our Oslo syncs started for Cinder early in Juno. We are way behind on db and db.sqlalchemy. Planning to propose changes to that as soon as we switch over.
