Nothing is merged on the cinder side yet, and won't be merging until after the summit. Making an interface that is generic enough for any entity that may wish to receive event notification from cinder is my concern. The fact nova has already merged something that works for neutron really isn't much of a concern for me - getting the right interface into cinder is. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
