Open Stack

I submitted two session for them. One for Nova (http://summit.openstack.org/cfp/details/80 ) for generic discussion, one for networking (http://summit.openstack.org/cfp/details/81 ) for VF NIC specific discussion.

Every type of device has specific extra effort to do, GPU and NIC has different requirement/handling method. You gives several thing quantum need do to interact with nova, possibly we may have more like VLAN tag setup, QoS support etc.

Thanks

The thing we absolutely need to discuss together is how the Quantum side needs to interact with the hypervisor driver when the plugging is done, such as telling Quantum the attachment point in the network for switch reprogramming purposes and returning to Nova card programming information like VLAN tags.
Aside from that I can see there might be more to talk about from Nova (such as GPU mapping rather than network cards).  There may not be much more to say on the Quantum side of things since, from there, it would be per-plugin code to make it happen.

And I think a Summit session (perhaps one in the Nova track and one in the Quantum track) would also be good.

I'd probably argue for a single session that can be attended by folks from both, to avoid two groups coming to two different conclusions.  We can work with Vish to make sure that the same timeslot is open in both tracks.
