> Retirement of midonet plugin (disabling ticket)
> -----------------------------------------------

> Key: CLOUDSTACK-9858
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9858

> Reporter: Rafael Weingärtner
> Assignee: Rafael Weingärtner
>
> Recently there have been two threads asking and discussing the “midonet”
> integration with Apache CloudStack (ACS) [1-2].
> After quite some discussions, we noticed that despite having some people
> willing to use it, the plugin has never been fully developed by its vendor
> (Midokura). Further, nobody else has put the effort on fully testing and
> finishing its implementation. It seems that the plugin was incorporated into
> our code base without being fully finished. Moreover, I have asked around at
> the Midonet community, and the java client they use has changed quite a bit
> from the one we use.
> It begs the question if it does not work, why do we advertise such
> integration? [3].
> Following the component retirement process defined in [4], a vote thread was
> started in [5]. The community decided to retire this Midonet plugin. This
> task represents the first step of the retirement, which is the disabling of
> the plugin in CloudStack`s build process.
