I just commited my proposal of how to implement it at the example of glance since we're not making a lot of progress here with the other patch -- mewald
Sebastian - if you want to take lead on this work - mathias is interested in working on it. --sdake
Steven - From my point of view : it works. But it's difficult to understand and match the general strategy of the project. I can see that of my ideas have already been integrated in master. So if someone more "insider" of the project want to continue the final integration let's let Mathias finalize the work.
Sebastian - thanks for the quick reply.. Mathias is totally new to OpenStack, so he may need your help understanding your patch and fixing the comments by the reviewers. We as a community are highy keen to have this work implemented. --sdake
moving to newton-3 expected to be released on 2016-09-02. Please try to finish it before that otherwise it will be moved to Octata. - coolsvap
one question: when using external ceph, why not use ceph for all the services( cinder, glance, nova )? Does it really useful to only enable ceph for glance? -- jeffrey4l ( 2016.7.20)

Configuration with the least possible amount of global.yml parameters simply by using existing INI merge and the copying of files. I had to touch set_configs.py to allow wildcards.
