Ionut, One of the major objectives for CB2 work has been to embrace the attribute injection style of cookbook so that we can align with Stackforge. Rob

The stackforge cookbooks support the grizzly openstack branch. There are several advantages to using them: the style of the cookbooks is clearer and more orthogonal (e.g. platform-specific things are set in the attributes file), they have good chefspec test coverage and a growing community. I have a first working version up in a new branch in our SUSE-Cloud keystone-barclamp repository[2]. Some pieces aren't there yet, like password management and SSL support, but it works successfully with the other openstack barclamps in the release/pebbles/master branch. The code is pretty simple, it basically just maps some of the existing attributes from crowbar-names to stackforge-names. Basically all of it is in the default recipe[3]. I haven't changed any existing attribute names; changing those could reduce the size of the default recipe. So like I said, this is just a working proof of concept which we'd like to get some feedback on from the wider crowbar community to see if this would be a worthwhile path to follow.
