[openstack-dev] Nova hook

Instance users....

The spec has been around for a long time.

People have been using hooks or vendor data to work around the lack of them. And both are being depricated.

Please, attend the summit session and lets address the issue.

Thanks,
Kevin

The point of removing it is that we do *not* want people to add custom
code into nova's internal APIs, so there is explicitly no replacement
for this functionality.

If you have a use case that Nova does not currently address, that is
broadly useful then you can propose a blueprint/spec to explicitly
support this in Nova, rather than doing it out of tree via a hook

Regards,
Daniel
