I'm curious, how would having Nova reviewers look at this have helped?
As I mentioned on a previous email, Nova is the pre-eminent consumer of Neutron's API.

I do not want to be over dramatic but the discussion on the original "Group Based Policy and the way forward" thread is nothing short of heartbreaking. After months and months of discussions, three presentations at the past three summits, a design session at the last summit, and (most relevant to this thread) the approval of the spec, why are we talking about the merits of the work now? I understand if people think this is not a good idea or this is not a good time. What I do not understand is why these concerns were not raised clearly and openly earlier. I have to agree here. I'm not sure whether my organization needs GBP or not. It's certainly not our top priority for Neutron given a variety of other more important functional gaps. However, I saw their demo at the summit and it was clear that a lot of work had gone into it even before Icehouse. From the demo it was clearly a useful enhancement to Neutron even if it wasn't at the top of my priority list. For people to be asking to justify the "why" this far into the Juno cycle when the spec was approved and the code was demoed at the summit really brings the OpenStack process into question. It's one thing to discuss technical merits of contributions but it's totally different to pull the rug out from under a group of contributors at the last minute after such a long period of development, discussion, and demo. Seeing this sort of last minute rejection of a contribution after so much time has been invested in it could very easily have a chilling effect on contributors. I don't disagree with you, Paul. I blame myself for not paying the attention I should have to this earlier in the process. FWIW, I had a good conversation with Sumit and Kevin on #openstack-neutron this afternoon about this particular topic. We agree on some things; disagree on others. Bottom line, I go back to what I said in a previous email: the Nova and Neutron development teams need to do a much better job in being directly involved in each other's spec discussions and design conversations.
