    Hi,
    Over the last few weeks I have been trying to add a patch that
    will enable Quantum to make use of the common configuration
    interface provided by the openstack common library. The task is
    proving very challenging. At the moment we have the following:
    1. OVS and Linux bridge agents using local conf data strcuture
    (via the cfg API) [reviewed and approved]
    2. Quantum service using global cfg.CONF [in review]
    The problem with the above review is that we have yet to get a
    concensus on what we want to do. Do we want to merge the
    plugin.ini configuration files into the quantum configuration
    file? If so then I feel that we are able to move forward. If not I
    need to invest time and address the current review comments. These
    are valid if and only if we decide to remain with the separate in
    files. I am in favor of us moving to one configuration file if
    possible.


I too am in favor of moving to one configuration file, and we've had a long-standing bug in quantum to do so. Is there a particular review comment of someone expressing concern with this approach? If so, I'd like to see the comment to better understand the concern, otherwise, I think we should move forward with the consolidation.

We are currently stuck on the implementation of the method find_config_file. I did not address this as the intention was to move to one common configuration file. Today, following comments, I made a few changes today to address this. Sadly there have broken the tests for the plugins. I will revert and hopefully we can get a consensus to move forward to a unified configuration file.
Can we discuss this at the meeting this evening?
Thanks
Gary

    My plan is to do the following (comments will be greatly
    appreciated) - each in a separate task to try and keep the changes
    to a minimum:
    1. Finally get https://review.openstack.org/#/c/8101/ finished
    2. Move the paste configuration to a separate file
    3. If relevant merge the plugin.ini into the common configuration
    file.
    Thanks
    Gary
