Whiteboard

This was discussed a bit right after the Grizzly summit, mainly in connection with the BP it superceded:
  http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-October/001917.html
  http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-November/002364.html
  http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-November/002185.html
I think the general feeling was that it was appropriate for Nova, the discussion was mostly over implementation strategies.

I have started a new discussion on this here: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2013-April/008307.html

After the above discussion, I am of the opinion that an extension to nova's compute API is not appropriate here. As always, we can continue to discuss further on the list. --russellb
