While reviewing specs I've come across several related to adding more or exposing existing metrics monitors from nova-compute. At the Newton midcycle we discussed how we were going to freeze feature requests like this and start deprecating this capability, at least open-ended until there is a clear replacement or alternative. None of that is mentioned in the devref though, so I've posted a change with wording about that here:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/385219/

You'll also note there is a change below that one:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/385203/

which updates the 'out of tree' section in that same document to explicitly point out that hooks/extension points/classloading managers/services/drivers are also actively being deprecated and removed. That's a topic that has come up several times over the past few releases so we need to be clear about it in the documentation.

I've added the nova-core team to both reviews so we're all on the same page within the core team, but also sending this out as an FYI so everyone working on the project is aware and can raise concerns in the reviews if they feel the need.
