The backwards compatibility spec is yet to be approved. This is partly
the reason why i pushed for the stable branches last cycle -- because
TripleO has no backwards compatibility guarantee (yet).

Regardless, I'd hate to see the migration to HOT reverted. That will
cause a lot of churn on folks. Especially on the parts of the Tuskar
work that are depending on this migration. And then the disruption on
everyone again when we try to merge it next time.

I think working through the Heat bugs is less churn. Steve Baker
proposed a fix for the latest issue:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/113739/ but it's marked WIP. I'd
rather push on getting these fixes merged vs. reverting. Since we
actually don't know if it's a shallow vs. deep problem, let's not
assume deep and automatically cause a bunch of churn for everyone.
