This trend identified by Ed and Thierry is evident in the group of Barbican contributors. Many of our previously active contributors have moved on to other projects. There are some quality ideas in this thread. I hope I'm just stating the obvious here: there are no Barbican contributors waiting in the wings with extra cycles to develop them. If a Vault plugin or cross-project fine-grained access controls are important to you or your company, please help us out. I promise the community is open to new ideas, new developers, and new reviewers. __________________________________________________________________________ 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
