Ihar and Kevin, As our potential future PTLs, I would like to draw your attention to one of the critical issue regarding Neutron as "the" networking service in OpenStack.
I keep hearing off and on that Neutron is not flexible to address many networking use cases and hence a new (or additional) networking project is needed. For example, to address the use cases around NFV (rigid resource inter-dependencies). Another one keeps popping up is that it is very hard/difficult to add/enhance Neutron API - hence, I picked this one goal called out in Ihar's candidacy. I would really like us to discuss this issue head-on and see what is missing in Neutron APIs and what would take to make them extensible so that vendors do not run around trying to figure out alternative solutions.... cheers.. -Sukhdev > * Explore alternative ways to evolve Neutron API.
