While this is certainly true, the experience with Nova is not unusual in that regard. There have always been highly opinionated people with conflicting ideas. Eventually a choice is made; occasionally it is by persuasion, but the exhaustion bit is there too. What we've seen in Nova over the years is that generally those who have different opinions eventually fall by the wayside, leaving behind those who share the opinion of the choice. It becomes self-selecting. There isn't any reason that a similar process will happen among those highly-opinionated placement people. It was said in the #openstack-tc discussions, but for those on the mailing list, the biggest concern among the Nova core developers is that the consensus among Placement cores will certainly not align with the needs of Nova. I personally think that's ridiculous, and, as one of the very opinionated people involved, a bit insulting. No one wants to see either Nova or Placement to fail. -- Ed Leafe
