Thomas, thanks for all your hard work. I hope you can return to it soon and that this serves as a notice that we need more investment to keep OpenStack viable in Debian and Ubuntu. Can I propose that we start to move some of the libraries and things like OpenStack Client into DPMT/DPAT? They don't require constant attention, and it will be helpful to have a larger team assisting in the packaging where it doesn't require anything OpenStack specific to keep moving forward. __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
