Blueprint changed by Clint Byrum:

Whiteboard changed:
-  - MIR librbd and librados
-  - compile qemu-kvm with ceph (rbd, rados) block device support, see:
-   * https://launchpad.net/~kirkland/+archive/virt/+packages
-  - include latest libvirt rbd support (for rbd authentication)
  
+ Work Items:
+ [canonical-kernel-team] investigate large xattr support patch from Ted T'so 
in ext4
+ [canonical-kernel-team] potentially help push large xattr support to ext4
+ [canonical-server] confer with kernel-team to decide on which to recommend, 
ext4/xfs/btrfs
+ [canonical-server] define Ubuntu supported configurations of CEPH
+ [canonical-server] improve ceph charms
+ [canonical-server] integrate ceph charm with openstack charms
+ [canonical-server] libvirt changes needed
+ [canonical-server] MIR ceph
+ [hallyn] enable rbd and rados in qemu-kvm builds
+ [nijaba] correctly message technology preview for non-supported bits
+ [canonical-server] investigate apache + 100 continue support for rados S3 GW
+ [canonical-server] push nagios and collectd plugins into 
Ubuntu/Debian/Upstream
+ [canonical-server] setup automated build recipe against upstream source
+ [canonical-server] import upstream test suite into archive
+ [sconklin] ext4/btrfs/xfs testing in QA
+ 
+  * gceph is not reasonable to be in main (upstream doesnt want to
+ support)
+ 
+     Today rbd is loaded loaded at runtime
+ 
+  
+  - MIR librbd and librados for qemu/kvm
+   - compile qemu-kvm with ceph (rbd, rados) block device support, see:
+   - https://launchpad.net/~kirkland/+archive/virt/+packages
+  - MIR all of ceph for hosting ceph
+  - include latest libvirt rbd support (for rbd authentication)
+  - Existing Openstack Support
+    - Nova since cactus can use CEPH for block
+    - Diablo added glance support for CEPH for image storage
+  - Dreamhost using mainline BTRFS and debian kernel for current deployment
+ - Dreamhost launching at scale in a few "weeks"
+ - CEPH is an independent business unit under Dreamhost
+ - Dreamhost using fastcgi + apache for rados gateway (can use nginx, too)
+  
+  
+  Dependencies:
+  modfast-cgi
  Concerns;
  - Upstream makes a release every 2 weeks
  - No stable release branches upstream
  - Limited deployment outside Dreamhost
- 
+ - unencrypted over the wire
+   - apps can implement security on top of it
+   - IPv6 is supported
  Additional Opportunities:
  - Integrate tightly with OpenStack in packaging
  - Add support for ceph in juju openstack charms
+ - BTRFS ideal, XFS also working well, ext4 missing "large xattr" support
+ - Upstream asserts that CEPH is under heavy development (cmdline programs 
remind user at every execution)
+  - in the openstack use case, for kvm, there is no need for kernel code at all
+   - if we want to support xen, it would require using the block device kernel 
code for rdb
+ Support Targets:
+ - RBD
