I have to agree with others that copying files around is not ideal, and I can see the maintenance of this getting more involved as Nova becomes more coupled with common.

Just because python-swiftclient depends on openstack-common, and django-using code exists there, doesn't mean that django needs to be installed for python-swiftclient. We might do better to use git submodules and solve the dependency problem, than continuing down this copy-everything path. Alternatively, speed up the movement from incubation to library.
