Hi,<br>
<br>
<br>
I would like to discuss here about two blueprint proposal (maybe
could I merge them into one if you prefer) :<br>
<br>
<a
href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/api-v2-export-properties">https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/api-v2-export-properties</a><br>
<a
href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/api-v2-import-properties">https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/api-v2-import-properties</a><br>
<br>
<b>Use case</b> :<br>
I would like to set specific properties to an image which could
represent a signature, and useful for licensing requirements for
example.<br>
To do that, I should be able to export an image with user properties
included.
<p>Then, a user could reuse the exported image in the public cloud,
and Glance will be aware about its properties.<br>
Obviously, we need the import / export feature.<br>
</p>
<p>The idea here is to be able to identify an image after cloning or
whatever with a property field. Of course, the user could break it
in editing the image manually, but I consider he / she won't.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
Let me know if you have any thoughts and if the blueprint is
valuable.<br>
<br>
</p>
<p>Regards,<br>
