It's probably just a matter of not getting to them. We have a couple of incomplete specs related to contexts and logging. Ronald and I were going to try to make some progress on those during Newton. http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/oslo-specs/specs/kilo/app-agnostic-logging-parameters.html http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/oslo-specs/specs/liberty/oslo.log-user-identity-format-flexibility.html Doug > > Please let me know before I start going down this path. > > -Sean > __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
