Given I haven't seen any updates, or had any communication from the ProphetStore team I'm removing this from I3. If you have the code submitted in the next week or so that's fine, it doesn't prevent you from submitting, but code there's a lot of code that's been in process for quite some time and at this point it takes priority in the review process.

I think at this point we should consider deferring to Juno, maybe you could join in on IRC and get myself or another Cinder developer to help you with the expectations for submital? I know I haven't caught up with you, but maybe somebody else has been helping out... regardless there are a lot of things missing that I'd be happy to help you with but this late in the cycle it's tough considering priorities of closing out the milestone.

I see your submission, thanks! I'm working through it, drivers like this and VIPR are tricky IMO because they don't actually provide a backing, they just give another abstraction layer (another Cinder) underneath Cinder which makes it an interesting case.
