+1 on bolting the different views for things on as new v2 pieces instead of trying to solve the API genericism immediately. I would strive to make this a facade, and start immediately on making Glance more generic under the hood. Otherwise these will just end up as silos inside Glance instead of silos inside OpenStack. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
