Now for Oracle, we definitely need more 3rd party CI to make it easier to test our drivers, components, and patches against so that it's easier for the community to validate things. However, it takes time, resources, and money to make that happen. Hopefully that will get sorted out over time. But even if we make all of the investments in setting that up, we still need the upstream teams to come to the table and not shun us away just because we are Oracle :)
I'd recommend talking with Drew Thorstensen and the IBM PowerVM team. They persistently worked with the nova team over a few cycles to finally get to the point where we agreed to bring their driver in tree, but not before we knew they already had open-sourced their nova driver code (the driver code, not the hypervisor code) and were running 3rd party CI against it successfully. But they are really the example now for anyone trying to get new virt drivers into Nova.
