Hi, I would like to discuss here about two blueprint proposal (maybe could I merge them into one if you prefer) : https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/api-v2-export-properties https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/api-v2-import-properties *Use case* : I would like to set specific properties to an image which could represent a signature, and useful for licensing requirements for example. To do that, I should be able to export an image with user properties included. Then, a user could reuse the exported image in the public cloud, and Glance will be aware about its properties. Obviously, we need the import / export feature. The idea here is to be able to identify an image after cloning or whatever with a property field. Of course, the user could break it in editing the image manually, but I consider he / she won't. Let me know if you have any thoughts and if the blueprint is valuable.
