Hey Devin
The integration is nearly complete, I'm just working on the final bits
to attach/detach ports from nova instances.
I did start out similar to the swift container code in the dashboard
with my views and controllers within the django_openstack module but
halfway through I changed my mind and moved them to a separate module.
I thought since Quantum is a project that can also be used outside
openstack, it might be nice to have a separate module that provides all
the basic views and operations without depending on nova. The templates
are also contained within django-quantum so publishing a django-quantum
egg should enable any other nova/non-nova clients to reuse the views.
I'm fairly new to Django/Buildout and I could be totally wrong on the
approach. Should I roll up everything into django-openstack? Please let
me know the potential pitfalls/ shortcomings of my approach.
Thanks
Arvind

Hey Dan,
Thanks for the link! I'm excited to see that support for Quantum is
being added to Dashboard. I did notice that a new module called
django-quantum is added, but there is a slightly cleaner way to
accomplish this without having to create a new top level module. I
recommend looking at how we integrated Swift support recently.
Let me know if you guys have any questions about the integration. I'm
available to help!
Best,
Devin

Hi Devin,
Here's the pointer to the existing Quantum dashboard blueprint:

Mark Voelker's team at Cisco has been taking the lead on this and can
provide you with more details. Its currently targeted for Diablo-4.
CC'ing the netstack list in case an impromptu design discussion
ensures :)
