Hi Doug,
I did most of those and I'll have a look at the other OpenStack
components soon. We run all testsuites against openSUSE:Factory
packages, which are always the latest and greatest. However, no issues
with a newer WebOb popped up so far. So either the coverage isnt't
sufficient or its working already ;-)
