Further, nobody else has put the effort on fully testing and > finishing its implementation. It seems that the plugin was incorporated into > our code base without being fully finished. Moreover, I have asked around at > the Midonet community, and the java client they use has changed quite a bit > from the one we use. > It begs the question if it does not work, why do we advertise such > integration? [3]. > Following the component retirement process defined in [4], a vote thread was > started in [5]. The community decided to retire this Midonet plugin. This > task represents the first step of the retirement, which is the disabling of > the plugin in CloudStack`s build process. > > [1] > http://cloudstack.markmail.org/thread/qyedle5jb2c34gsc#query:+page:1+mid:xn2zq2v3eim5vl2q+state:results > [2] > http://cloudstack.markmail.org/message/rewzk4v7dgzpsxkm?q=midonet+order:date-backward&page=1#query:midonet%20order%3Adate-backward+page:1+mid:i563khxlginf6smg+state:results > [3] http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/latest/networking/midonet.html > [4] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=68720798 > [5] http://markmail.org/message/qigrtfirwnmct4hr -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
