In all honesty it doesn't matter which term we go with. As long as we are<br>
consistent and define the meaning. I think we can argue intuitive vs<br>
non-intuitive in this case unto the ground. I prefer "project" to tenant,<br>
but beyond being a bit of an "overloaded" term, I really don't think anyone<br>
will really notice one way or another as long as everything is using the<br>
same terminology. We could call it "grouping-of-openstack-things" if we<br>
wanted to (though I might have to pull some hair out if we go to that<br>
terminology). However, with all that in mind, we have made the choice to move toward<br>
project (horizon, keystone, OSC, keystoneclient) and have some momentum<br>
behind that push (plus newer projects already use the project<br>
nomenclature). Making a change back to tenant might prove a worse UX than<br>
moving everything else in line (nova I think is the one real major hurdle<br>
to get converted over, and deprecation of keystone v2 API). <br>
<br>
FWIW, ceilometer also uses project in our API (although some of our docs use<br>
the terms interchangeably).<br>

And, FWIW, Marconi uses project as well.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Well project seems to be the way everyone is heading long term. So we'll do this for the Nova<br>V3 API. As others have mentioned, I think the most important this is that we all end up using<br>
the same terminology (though with the long life of APIs we're stuck with the both for a few years<br>at least).<br></div><div><br>Chris<br></div><br></div></div></div>
