Yes, because none of the option has been changed, and those who have
been changed have been deprecated, e.g. deprecated_group=foobar.

That's the only option where maybe I cleaned-up a little bit too much as
I think I remove the alarm_connection from Aodh. I'll cook a patch to
fix that.

Well ultimately as soon as they start using aodh, they could copy
ceilometer.conf, remove what's ceilometer only related and voilĂ . That
can be achieved by comparing with the default aodh.conf I guess.

We could test that upgrade path using Grenade maybe?

I hope I made things clearer!
