> Mistral is a new OpenStack service designed for task flow control, scheduling, and execution. The project will implement Convection proposal (<a href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Convection" target="_blank">https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Convection</a>)
and provide an API and domain-specific language that enables users to manage tasks and their dependencies, and to define workflows, triggers, and events. The service will provide the ability to schedule tasks, as well as to define and manage external sources
of events to act as task execution triggers.<br>

Why exactly aren't you just calling this Convection and/or collaborating<br>
with the developers who came up with it?<br>
