Hello operators and other people interested in metadefs, The Glance team will be giving the metadefs some love in the Xena development cycle in order to address OSSN-0088 [0]. The people who designed and implemented metadefs are long gone, and in determining how to fix OSSN-0088, we would like to understand how people are actually using them in the wild so we don't restrict them so much as to make them useless. We are looking for an operator who uses metadefs to give us a walkthrough on how you are using them at the Xena (virtual) PTG. We are planning to have this session on 23rd April around 1400 UTC. You can find more details about the same in PTG planning etherpad [1]. We are also willing to meet outside the PTG schedule in case the current scheduled time might be blocking the people. I will also reply to this as a reminder mail once our PTG schedule is final. If you do not use the metadef API for some reason related to its inability to solve a problem, lack of flexibility, or other reasons (but wish you could), we would also like to hear about that. We need to know if the feature is worth fixing and maintaining going forward. And when we say "an operator", we don't mean just one ... ideally, we'd like to have a few real-life use cases to consider. If this is affecting you (as an operator) then you can reach us either by mail or #openstack-glance IRC channel or glance weekly meeting [2] which will be held every Thursday around 1400 UTC.
