And the way the rest of the components fit into that scenario is far from clear to me. Do you consider this more of a "if you can make it work, good for you", or something we should aim to be more generally supported over time? Personally, I see the globally distributed OpenStack under a single API case much more complex, and worth considering out of scope for the short to medium term, at least. For me, this discussion boils down to ... 1) Do we consider these use cases in scope at all? 2) If we consider it in scope, is it enough of a priority to warrant a cross-OpenStack push in the near term to work on it? 3) If yes to #2, how would we do it? Cascading, or something built around cells? I haven't worried about #3 much, because I consider #2 or maybe even #1 to be a show stopper here. -- Russell Bryant _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
