We have until January 9th to submit a question. If you have any 
quantitative questions about Nova to users, please reply to this 
thread before then.


Personally I tend to be interested in feedback on recent development, 
so I'd like to ask questions about cells v2 or the placement API, 
i.e. they were optional in Newton but how many deployments that have 
upgraded to Newton are deploying those features (maybe also noting 
they will be required to upgrade to Ocata)? However, the other side 
of me knows that most major production deployments are also lagging 
behind by a few releases, and may only now be upgrading, or planning 
to upgrade, to Mitaka since we've recently end-of-life'd the Liberty 
release. So asking questions about cells v2 or the placement service 
is probably premature. It might be better to ask about microversion 
adoption, i.e. if you're monitoring API request traffic to your 
cloud, what % of compute API requests are using a microversion > 2.1.


Previous release priorities might spur some other ideas [2].

I would like to ask about notifications if possible:

Do you consume (or plan to consume) nova notifications in your 
deployment? Have you heard about the versioned notifications? Do you 
consume (or plan to consume) versioned notifications?


Cheers,

I have one to users:

- Have you need to add some customized features on upstream Nova code to
meet your special needs? or Nova is out of the box project?

Thanks.
