Tomaz Muraus commented on LIBCLOUD-519:
---------------------------------------
[~Mariem] It's still slightly early for GSoC 2015 (I don't know yet if we will
participate - it depends on the availability of the mentors), but to get a
better idea of what this task encompasses, you can have a look at this pull
request - https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/345
In this pull request most of the basic functionality has been implemented, but
it still needs a discussion and agreement on the base API on the mailing list
and a bunch of polishing (tests, driver for AWS, docs, etc.).

> Key: LIBCLOUD-519
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-519
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Tomaz Muraus
> Labels: gsoc2014, python
>
> New standard API (e.g. libcloud.networking) for "Networking as a Service" for
> handling services such as OpenStack Neutron / Quantum.
> Ideally there should also be some integration with the compute API. For
> example, compute driver would instantiate a networking driver and use it to
> handle all the networking operations.
> Good example of this is OpenStack driver. Currently all the networking API is
> handled using Nova networking, but once we have a new networking API, we
> could make this pluggable meaning user could select which API to use (nova
> networking / neutron networking) when instantiating a driver.
> (more details to follow)
