Hi Prachi, I've been loosely following the work you've been doing with regard to the IAM enhancements. We've been having some discussions recently regarding a better access control model to CloudStack at SunGard for upcoming requirements we have. I didn't realize until today that the work was this close to being complete!
>From looking over the documentation you provided, this feature looks great. I was curious if everything you set out to accomplish that is discussed here https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/CloudStack+Identity+and+Access+Management+%28IAM%29+Pluginwas completed? Otherwise, are there any outstanding items that you think you need help with? We have some developers here who are looking to start contributing. If there are no major items, even something like unit tests for this feature could work. Thanks!
