If done the way Adam Young described, with Fernet content as UUIDs, one could in theory update from any UUID-aware provider, since the Fernet-emitting nodes would just be writing their Fernet tokens into the database that the UUID nodes read from, allowing the UUID-only nodes to validate the new tokens. However, we never support jumping more than one release at a time, so that is somewhat moot. Also, stackforge isn't a thing, but I see what you're saying. It could live out of tree, but let's not abandon all hope that we can collaborate on something that works for users who desire to not have a window mass token invalidation on update. __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
