Alright so the proposed patch (on the abandoned review) doesn't fix the problem either, so I guess I take a look at Grizzly.
If I were to want to test this out is Grizzly is the best option to just grab the code from git and deploy it that way or is there a snapshot that passes the tests? Basically we need to evaluate if Grizzly fixes the problem or if we need to abandon trying to use openstack entirely. -Trevor > Salvatore, > > Thanks for your reply, ok that makes sense.
