Not an expert of Nova but I am really shocked by such a change. Because
I'm not a Nova expert, I don't have a say on the *huge* efforts in
maintaining some builtin/default flavors. As a user I don't care where
the data have been stored, but I do care that they are gone. They are
gone because they **WILL** be supported by devstack. They are gone with
the workflow +1'ed **BEFORE** the devstack patch gets merged (many
thanks to the depends-on tag). They are gone in hope that all deployment
tools will know this when they fail, or fortunately they read this email,
or they were reviewing nova patches.

It would be a little nicer to initiate a discussion on the mailinglist
before such a change is introduced.


It was communicated accordingly to operators with no strong arguments :
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-operators/2016-March/010045.html

You can also see that https://review.openstack.org/#/c/300127/ is having three items :
 - a DocImpact tag creating a Launchpad bug for documentation about that
- a reno file meaning that our release notes will provide also some comments about that - a Depends-On tag (like you said) on a devstack change meaning that people using devstack won't see a modified behavior.

Not sure what you need more.

Just as a heads up, we are removing the default flavors from nova in
this patch:

Since long ago, Nova's default flavors were baked in at the database
migration level. Now that we have moved them to another database
entirely, this means we have to migrate them from the old/original place
to the new one, even for new deployments. It also means that our tests
have flavor assumptions that run (way too) deep.

Devstack will get support for auto-creating the flavors you are used to,
as well as some less-useless ones:

Normal developers shouldn't really notice, but the deployment tool
projects may want/need to do something here along the same lines.
