+1 if you want people to care about something then it should be part of the main repo and part of the regular regression testing.

Why is it harder for people that are interested in EC2 support to work in the existing nova repo? If people want to collaborate before pushing into mainline, that can be done via feature branches, too. It risks making EC2 development harder, as well. Pulling it out of nova completely risks allowing the people that don't care about EC2 to care even less. It could make it easier for people to make changes that make EC2 compatibility harder to maintain. -- Russell Bryant _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
