Not exactly. I'm including it because Nova is where containers exist today (docker and libvirt/LXC). Also, if a new service is created, the proposal is that it would at least start as a sub-project of the Compute program (the same program that includes the Nova project). If a a new project is created and we later decide it should split off into its own program, the compute program's mission statement can be amended. -- Russell Bryant _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
