Open Stack

Thanks for setting this up Clark, I'll look into this close once I'm
back from traveling this week.

Michael, from a parity perspective, we have closed the gaps and there
is nothing that should prevent this functionally from working. That
said, it's likely there could be gaps as part of this type of upgrade,
so I'm happy to help look at this and work with you to close the gaps
and get this going.

Thanks,
Kyle
