Heh, not much discussion there. :-) Here's my take ... Pecan+WSME has been pushed as the thing to standardize on across most OpenStack APIs. Ceilometer (and maybe others?) are already using it. Others, such as Nova, are planning to use it this cycle. [1][2] I care less about the particular choice and more about consistency. It brings a lot of value, such as making it a lot easier for developers to jump around between the OpenStack projects. Can we first at least agree that there is value in standardizing on *something* for most OpenStack APIs? I understand that there may be cases where the needs for an API justify being different. Marconi being more of a data-plane API vs control-plane means that performance concerns are much higher, for example. If we agree that consistency is good, does Solum have needs that make it different than the majority of OpenStack APIs? IMO, it does not. Can someone lay out a case for why all OpenStack projects should be using Falcon, if that's what you think Solum should use? Also, is anyone willing to put up the equivalent of Jay's review [3], but with Pecan+WSME, to help facilitate the discussion?
