I don't think we've ever capped oslo.config anywhere. Got a pointer to what triggered that concern? We should/could be capping oslo.config like this: oslo.config>=1.1.0,<2.0 because the API stability commitment is that we won't break the API without bumping the release number to 2.0. I don't anticipate doing 2.0 soon/ever, so I've never pushed ahead with that capping.
