Hi,

Following feedback on the proposed API specification, we are proposing a few 
changes:


1)       Removing operation: POST /networks/{net_id}/attachments

This is an orchestration operation (see second diagram for 'Create 
Network<http://wiki.openstack.org/QuantumAPIUseCases#Create_Network_and_Spawn_VM>'
 use case). It has been suggested that orchestration should be avoided in 
low-level services in order to ensure each operation is atomic thus limiting 
rollback issues.

2)       Removing operation: GET /networks/{net_id}/attachments

This operation retrieves all the resources attached to a network. In nova the 
'detail' action is typically used for this purpose. It would make more sense to 
change it into GET /networks/{net_id}/detail which would list all ports with 
all attributes of ports (including attachments).

I would be more than happy to receive your feedback on the proposed changes.
Also, please feel free to use this email thread to provide further feedback on 
the API or propose more changes.

Thanks,
Salvatore
