In the user survey from October 2013, about 30% of respondents claim to have the EC2 API enabled. It's not the first time we make the sad observation that noone actually cares enough about the EC2 API to invest the one FTE that would be required to maintain it in good shape. That session is up at every Design Summit, but every time we get various resource pledges that never pan out. Now that we have raised the QA bar for hypervisors, plugins and backend drivers to stay in mainline code, it's only a matter of time until the EC2 API is held to the same standards... I think it's important that we keep that API though, so I really hope someone will step up soon. -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
