Hi Tomas,

Starting in 1.8 (the current devel branch) you should not need to specify
these params if they are already environment variables - the module code
should pick them up from the environment for you. There have been other
recent improvements in the various OpenStack modules, so I would recommend
checking out the development branch if you have not done so already.

Thanks!
