Hi Jay, Some thoughts about glance:
* There is lots of work/conversations around auth. Rather than attempt to boil the ocean and "fix" authn/authz at once, we are thinking of taking a phased approach (1-2 week chunks of contained work to multiple openstack projects, followed by a week of review/planning for the next steps). My hope is that we have involvement from Nova, Swift and Glance PTLs (or delegates). * What is the state of private images in glance? Do we need to do more work in Diablo? * Integration test coverage (end to end testing of openstack reference architectures) ! - I see someone else mentioned this, I just wanted to voice support :) -- Sent from my Tandy 1000sx Jesse Andrews [email protected] On Apr 12, 2011, at 11:11 AM, Jay Pipes wrote: > Hey all, > > We're in the planning stages for Diablo now, working on putting > together blueprints, which turn into sessions at the design summit. > > I know the Glance team is small and our project narrow in scope, but > it would be great to get some feedback from the list about stuff you'd > like to see included in Glance in the Diablo release. > > Some possible thoughts: > > * Authn/authz - This is a big one, but dependent on the overall > discussion of federated auth going on in the Nova/Swift communities. > Glance will merely follow suit with what Nova does most likely. > * Image conversion.
