I thought as of now its the business demand that drives the priority
for the blueprints and features.
I guess the problem is companies  ( like HP and Internap ) have not
played a lot around quantum yet.
So, we haven't got their feedbacks/comments/needs.
If there are some HP and Internap folks here, please correct me if
this is wrong.
