Sorry to miss yesterday's meeting. Caught up on the ether pad.
Are the component and platform bits documented somewhere so I can read up? I'd rather do that first, before the obnoxious number of questions starts. =]
Thanks!

Components have distinct lists of capabilities that could overlap (e.g.: they should all require Keystone capabilities). From that perspective, we also do have the flexibility to define the Platform as requiring Nova-Net or Neutron.
