That's too bad that you won't be at the summit, but I think there may still be some discussion planned about this topic.

Yeah, I understand completely about priorities and such internally. Same for me... It just happens that this IS priority work for us right now. :)

Sadly I won't be at the summit this time around. There may be some public cloud focused discussions, and some of those often have this topic come up. Also if Monty from the SDK team is around, I'd suggest finding him and having a chat.

I'll help if I can but we are swamped with internal work and I can't dedicate much time to do upstream work that isn't urgent. :(

That's interesting -- we have already started working to add features and improve ospurge, and it seems like a plenty useful tool for our needs, but I think I agree that it would be nice to have that functionality built into the sdk. I might be able to help with both, since one is immediately useful and we (like everyone) have deadlines to meet, and the other makes sense to me as a possible future direction that could be more widely supported.

Will you or someone else be hosting and discussion about this at the Shanghai summit? I'll be there and would be happy to join and discuss.

I tried to get a community goal to do project deletion per project, but
we ended up deciding that a community goal wasn't ideal unless we did
build a bulk delete API in each service:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/community-goal-project-deletion
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/DEN-Deletion-of-resources
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/DEN-Train-PublicCloudWG-brainstorming

What we decided on, but didn't get a chance to work on, was building
into the OpenstackSDK OS-purge like functionality, as well as reporting
functionality (of all project resources to be deleted). That way we
could have per project per resource deletion logic, and all of that
defined in the SDK.

I was up for doing some of the work, but ended up swamped with internal
work and just didn't drive or push for the deletion work upstream.

If you want to do something useful, don't pursue OS-Purge, help us add
that official functionality to the SDK, and then we can push for bulk
deletion APIs in each project to make resource deletion more pleasant.

I'd be happy to help with the work, and Monty on the SDK team will most
likely be happy to as well. :)

Cheers,
Adrian
