That's sort of true, but more specifically the projects which removed them did so because there was no way to test that they were kept up to date without introducing spontaneous breakage into the development workflow. Since configuration options can be introduced by new versions of other libraries, any tests in the projects for which the configuration was published would start rejecting unrelated commits when that happened. Since these projects removed the tests to confirm whether the sample configs being published were correct/current, they config files themselves were also removed rather than continue publishing something which they knew would get further and further out of sync with reality. -- Jeremy Stanley _______________________________________________ OpenStack-operators mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-operators
