Open Stack

As Brian is temporarily out of the office, I'll answer for him. Here are a few (major-version) differences I see in the 1.1 spec:
 
1) marker keyword replaces offset for pagination (functionally different, not just a different name)
2) server addresses container structured differently
3) all containers structured differently, now with links
3) shared ip groups is removed

Could you elaborate on an example of this inconsistency between 1.0
and 1.1?  That way, I'd have more to go on in thinking how to break
the versioning into separate modules.

Thanks Brian!
