[openstack-dev] Hardcoding of requests in client

Hi,

So during our regular package builds we been noticing a lot of failures 
due to requests being hardcoded to <1.0. An example of this is the 
following (for glance) can be found at:

http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1616835/

This is due to python-keystoneclient having a hard dependency of 
requests >=0.8.8,<1.0. I would like to propose that we update the 
dependencies for the clients to at least >=1.0. Most Linux distros for 
example, Ubuntu,  are using requests 1.1.  Making glance and 
python-keystoneclient not intsallable on the same system on raring.

I would like to propose a transition to allow at least requests 1.1 
since that is the latest version according to pypi and most linux 
distros will be migrating to that sooner or later.

Thoughts comments, flaming arrows?
