Because the community has done such a good job in the area of interoperability 
and compatibility over the past few years that it thus deserves the benefit of 
the doubt even though we have a thread previously showing blatant disregard for 
such concerns?

No, this community has, by and large, been overtly hostile to concerns of 
interoperability and compatibility and I jumped into this thread exactly 
because it was in active expression of that ongoing overt hostility.

As I said before, that needs to change. If you don't like my methods, oh well. 
But this is a serious problem that is a distinct threat to the viability of 
OpenStack. Much, much, much more so than whether block storage is represented 
by the nova-volumes model or the Cinder model.

Having said that, I believe I've made my point. I think the net result is that 
some people better understand the pain caused by the lack of OpenStack 
interoperability and compatibility, and others are still interested in just 
paying it lips service. 

We'll see what wins out come GA of Folsom, won't we?
