I have been working in Nova Quotas for more than a year, and  I also think that 
Nova Quota sub-team is a good idea. Let us form the team and work together.
                                                                      best 
regards
                                                                         sajeesh

I am highly supportive for the idea of Nova Quota sub-team, for something as 
complex as Quota, as it helps to move quickly on reviews and changes.

Agree with John, a test framework to test quotas will be helpful and can be one 
of the first task the Nova Quota sub team can focus on as that will lay the 
foundation for whether the bugs mentioned here http://bit.ly/1Pbr8YL are valid 
or not.

Having worked in the area of Quotas for a while now by introducing features 
like Cinder Nested Quota Driver [1] [2] I strongly feel that something like a 
Nova Quota sub-team will definitely help. Mentioning about Cinder Quota driver 
since it was accepted in Mitaka design summit that Nova Nested Quota Driver[3] 
would like to pursue the route taken by Cinder.  Since Nested quota is a one 
part of Quota subsystem and working in small team helped to iterate quickly for 
Nested Quota patches[4][5][6][7] so IMHO forming a Nova quota subteam will help.

Melanie,

If you can share the details of the bug that Joe mentioned, to reproduce quota 
bugs locally, it would be helpful.

+1, I think it's wise to get some data on the current state of quotas before 
choosing a redesign. IIRC, Joe Gordon described a test scenario he used to use 
to reproduce quota bugs locally, in one of the launchpad bugs. If we could 
automate something like that, we could use it to demonstrate how quotas 
currently behave during parallel requests and try things like disabling 
reservations. I also like the idea of being able to verify the effects of 
proposed fixes.
