Based on the discussion in the following thread,
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2013-August/013746.html,
and the amount of work listed as TODO there, I am concerned about the
maturity of the API that oslo.db would produce, I think db may need to
incubate longer in order to produce a stable API.

FYI: https://github.com/openstack/oslo-incubator/blob/master/MAINTAINERS shows
db is orphaned ... which doesn't sound very accurate.
