I've often wondered why some do it, and some don't. Seems to me that it should be done not inside each resource plugin but in the generic resource handling code. However, I have not given this much thought. Perhaps others can provide insight into why it has been done that way. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
