But, let's chat more about it via a hangout the week after next (week of January 14 when Matt is back), as suggested in #openstack-nova today. We'll be able to have a high-bandwidth discussion then and agree on a decision on how to move forward with this.
Thank you all for the discussion. I agree to have a real-time discussion about the way forward. Would Monday, 14th of Jan, 17:00 UTC[1] work for you for a hangouts[2]? I see the following topics we need to discuss: * backward compatibility with already existing SRIOV ports having min bandwidth * introducing microversion(s) for this feature in Nova * allowing partial support for this feature in Nova in Stein (E.g.: only server create/delete but no migrate support). * step-by-step verification of the really long commit chain in Nova I will post a summar of each issue to the ML during this week.
