Hi all,
a quick update on ours (Fabio's and mine) current activities.
First of all, we are basing our work on PR #135 rather than
jclouds-labs' master, since the former contains a whole set of fixes and
new features, and is in turn based on the latter.
About this, is anyone able to provide a sneak peek on expected actual
merge timeframe? From the e-mail below it seems quite soon.
We are currently trying to make all live tests succeeding with an actual
Azure instance: this is the initial main purpose of our contribution,
and will constitute the ground of our first pull request.
(Incidentally, I remember that there are free MSDN subscriptions
available - including Azure - for ASF committers; see
https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/committers/donated-licenses/msdn-license-grants.txt
for details)
The intention is then to move from there by identifying some subtasks of
JCLOUDS-664 for each specific item.
WDYT?
Regards.

Hi Francesco,
thanks for your interest in jclouds!
Azure Compute implementation is under the spot these days and we are
working hard to improve it.
You may be aware of [1] and moreover there are currently a couple of
pending PRs which are providing an initial implementation of the
AzureComputeServiceAdapter [2]
Hi Andrea, I am aware of course of the recent "Azure SDK Vs REST"
discussion, and I also know that at the end the REST option was
preferred.
As [2] will be soon merged, I think we could wait for #135 and then
rebase
your #137 on it, if it is still needed.
WDYT?
This sounds reasonable: I think we should coordinate our work (even by
opening some subtasks of JCLOUDS-664) in order to avoid latency and
being as much effective as possible.
How would do you see this?
Feel free to join IRC #jclouds to discuss better next steps!
I'm already there :-)
Regards.

Hi JClouds community,
I am interested in contributing to the Azure compute provider with
target of completing its implementation, as part of Eduard's team
with a
focus on Azure.
Is there anyone actively working on this [1]?
I see as initial directions to implement methods in [2] and to change
the deprecated implementations in [3]: am I missing something?
I have prepared a first pull request [4] which fixes some troubles I've
found with live (e.g. against an actual Azure subscription) test
execution.
WDYT?
Regards.
