Will this require that the keystonemiddleware is upgraded at the same as the 
Keystone server across a cloud or at the same time as services such as Nova ?

Many sites do a component based staged upgrade. This would mean an approach 
such as upgrading ceilometer or cinder to Liberty significantly before the Nova 
upgrade with Keystone in the  middle. 

- Would the new keystonemiddleware work with the old Keystone version ?
- How would multi-service controllers be upgraded where services such as Nova 
and cinder controllers share the same server ?
