Not going to make a big deal out of this. You came back saying I should
be subscribed to that ml (which I am) and I said that a link to the
ops thread in the original email would've been useful.

When I proposed removing the GridFS driver from glance_store, I asked
for feedback in other mailing lists and then came back here proposing
de dev removal.

The point I tried to make in my previous email is that, whenever we
propose removing something important - like support for a broker - the
broader the audience we try to get feedback from is, the better. You
can argue saying that it's very unlikely that there are ops in the
"OpenStack General mailing list" that are not in the ops m-l, but we
don't know that.

That's it.
