Nice work. When you've got the rest of the API bits ironed out (particularly attach/detach) I'll help work on making sure Horizon is fully functional there. Note that there's also an F3 Horizon blueprint for splitting volumes into its own optional panel: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/nova-volume-optional
We should coordinate on these things. ;-) - Gabriel > -----Original Message----- > From: openstack-bounces+gabriel.hurley=nebula....@lists.launchpad.net > [mailto:openstack- > bounces+gabriel.hurley=nebula....@lists.launchpad.net] On Behalf Of John > Griffith > Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2012 2:10 PM > To: openstack@lists.launchpad.net > Subject: [Openstack] Cinder status update > > For those of you that don't know Cinder is the new project intended to > separate block storage out of Nova and provide it via it's own service.
