Sean: Could you say a little more about why it is that running nova-compute inside of a VM makes it easier to integrate with nova-network or quantum (ova)?
The OpenStack docs on VMWare < http://docs.openstack.org/folsom/openstack-compute/admin/content/vmware.html> unfortunately don't have any detail about this. Also, is the VM that runs nova-compute supposed to be managed by OpenStack, or is it supposed to be set up manually?
