I hate to fan the fire, but what would happened in cassandra if they _never_ updated their data structures. Or hadoop, or any other open source project like that. I understand where you are coming from, but i would like to find an example of a project thats _never_ updated their datastore or caused some sort of migration, be it configuration or data based. I _do_ feel we should roll this migration in the least painful way possible though. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
