Open Stack

Hi Gabriel,

1. I can implement the api level of ceilometer in Horizon. After that, 
we can implement the interface in either text format or graphical format 
easily.  :)

2. A panel with several tabs for the services is great.

3. Just an admin function for now is great. I thinks it's you that 
register the blueprint in horizon. Please assign it to me and my 
launchpad id is yuanotes. :)

Thanks!

Brooklyn
