<div style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoPlainText"><font size="3" face="Consolas"> I noticed that firmware update is not on the priority list. I thought there was strong interest in this capability. The design spec of out-of-band firmware update has been submitted <a href="https://review.openstack.org/#/c/100842/">https://review.openstack.org/#/c/100842/</a>. We will address the review comments and uplaod a new version soon. Is it possible to add this item to the Juno list? Thanks!</font></div>
