After further investigation in blockdiag, is useless for moderately
complex diagrams.
Here is my attempt at graphing nova [0], but due to a blockdiag bug
from 2013, [1] it is impossible to clearly read. For example, in the
diagram there is not supposed to be any arrow between the conductor
and cinder/glance/neutron. I looked into dia, and while it has plenty
of diagram shapes it doesn't have a good template for software
architecture, but maybe there is a way to make dia work. And that just
leaves SVG graphics, after spending an hour or two playing around
with Inkscape and it looks promising (although the learning curve is
pretty steep). Here is my first attempt in Inkscape [2].

Thanks,

Maybe the "graphviz" extension for Sphinx could be usefull [1].
It's better in displaying edges/dependencies [2].

We use pydot2 (which uses graphviz) in ironic and taskflow (and maybe
elsewhere?) already and it seems to have worked out just fine, so if
people find this useful that's great to.
