It's a soft dependency, like most of the vendor specific dependencies - you only need them if you're using a specific backend. We've loads of them in cinder, under a whole bunch of licenses. There was a summit session discussing it that didn't come to any firm conclusions.
I have take a look to some other soft dependencies (I perhaps miss some): pywbem: LGPLv2+ vmemclient: APACHE 2.0 hpe3parclient: APACHE 2.0 purestorage: BSD 2-Clause rbd/rados: LGPL 2.1 Their are all at least OSI Approved licenses Anyway, I'm just sad to see that now two Opensource softwares (Cinder and DRBD) need a non 'OSI Approved license' library to talk together.
