Hi,
Just wondering what people thought about how necessary it is to keep XML
support for the Nova v3 API, given that if we want to drop it doing so
during the v2->v3 transition is pretty much the ideal time to do so.
The current plan is to keep it and is what we have been doing so far
when porting extensions, but there are pretty obvious long term
development and test savings if we only have one API format to support.
We need to keep XML support. XML is clearly superior to JSON in all
matters and enterprises won't use OpenStack unless there is XML support.
In fact, I think we should actually consider using XML for our
configuration files instead of this silly INI format. I've been playing
a lot recently with Jenkins' XML configuration files, and I think
they're super easy to use and read.
Best,
