Open Stack

I've got to fill out some questions for the Newton wrap up and some 
questions about looking forward for Ocata and Pike, and one of the 
open-ended questions, I think used for the user survey, is:

"What are the questions you would like to ask users for additional 
insights to help guide the planned development in the Ocata release?"

I have some questions, but wanted to send this out for broader input 
from the team since I'm sure there are things I'm not thinking of on a 
Friday afternoon.

Random thoughts:

- How is the adoption of the v2.1 API going? Are users sticking with 
just the 2.1 microversion or are they incrementally moving forward with 
newer microversions as they are released?

- What major gaps do you feel exist in the Compute API?

- What makes deploying/operating Nova the most difficult?

- Are we effectively communicating changes/features, be it release 
notes, mailing list threads, docs, other? (Personally my feeling is we 
probably don't spend enough time on documentation and it's an afterthought).

- What are we not focusing on? For example, major features that are 
missing, or are we spending too much time on features and not enough 
time on fixing bugs?

That last one is hard since the big multi-cycle issues that we're 
focusing on, like cells v2 and the placement service, are not really 
features as much as they are resolutions to long-standing latent bugs.
