The flavor part of code above should work fine (assuming 'mySpecs' is
actually in the returned specs). But there's a flavor_get_extras function
you can use too:

>>> extras = api.nova.flavor_get_extras(self.request, flavor_id, 
>>> raw=True) extras
{u'test': u'value'}
>>> extras.get('test', '-')
u'value'
>>> extras.get('mySpecs', '-')
'-'

Check out the admin flavors panel for other examples.
