Hi everyone, apologies for the cross-post; I believe this might be interesting to people on both the openstack and the pacemaker lists. Please see below.

Please feel free to flame me to a crisp or call me an idiot; as some of you are aware I'm quite firmly an HA guy getting into OpenStack, rather than the other way around. Even if the design summit proposal doesn't make it through, perhaps a few interested people (Monty? Jay? Adam? Major?) would like to sit down over beverages to discuss this in person. All comments and feedback much appreciated. Thanks!
