[Openstack] summit web site down?

2012-11-01 Thread Doug Davis
I was trying to find the name of the person who ran one of the sessions at the San Diego summit, but the session [1] doesn't list the name of the moderator (this would probably be a good thing to require for session description for the next summit). And so I then thought I might be able to find

Agreed - the resources used to create a server should be copied into the server's data if those resources can be deleted (or even modified independently of the servers using them). thanks -Doug STSM | Standards Architect | IBM Software

Situations like this are always interesting to watch. :-) On the one hand its open-source, so if you care about something then put up the resources to make it happen. On the other hand, that doesn't mean that as a developer you get to ignore the bigger picture and only do 1/2 of the work

On the flip side - to refresh people's memory it might be useful to send out a link to some of the email threads (or wikis) that explained why this move is critical to OS's success. Perhaps some of those reasons aren't as valid any more given the impact people are now seeing it will have.

You don't really expect a client (think ec2-like-user) to analyze debug info do you? I really think we need a nice consistent way for people to see what's going on with long-running operations. Debug info isn't that to me. thanks -Doug __

Consider the creation of a Job type of entity that will be returned from the original call - probably a 202. Then the client can check the Job to see how things are going. BTW - this pattern can be used for any async op, not just the launching of multiple instances since technically any op

I don't see this as an either-or type of thing. Totally agree with Mark that the APIs need to be more clearly documented and that should be independent of any kind of IDL (ala WADL) artifact. I say this mainly because I think we always need to have something that's human readable and not

Just wondering, is there any reason flavors are not limited to just create-time? Meaning, use it to create a new instance and then copy all of the flavor data into the new instance's data. This breaks the relationship between the instance and the flavor, allow each to be changed independently
