I have stricken the word "micro" and "language" from my vocabulary. Begone evil demons!! Haha :)

That’s fine. It doesn’t matter too much to me personally. As far as the micro-language: So there are typically 2 types of DSL's that occur, internal and external. An internal DSL is like http://martinfowler.com/bliki/InternalDslStyle.html, taskflow is already a micro-DSL internal to python (mistral is an external DSL[1]). To me there is a drawback of becoming to much of a DSL (internal or external) in that it requires a lot of new learning (imho internal DSLs are easier to pick-up since they take advantage of the surrounding languages capabilities, in this case python). So that’s what I just want to keep in our minds that we need to make it simple *enough*, or we will die a nasty death of complexity :-P [1] http://martinfowler.com/bliki/DomainSpecificLanguage.html Ok, got it. Thanks. I’m just still not sure why you emphasize on that micro-language thing. IMO terms like that can scary people :) In fact, this ‘switch’ (or decider, or whatever) is just an additional API which can be used to alter flow behavior. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org<mailto:OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org> http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
