Based on my reading of the wiki page about this it sounds like it should
be a sub-project of the Storage program.  While it is targeted for use
by multiple projects, it's pretty specific to interacting with Cinder,
right?  If so, it seems like Oslo wouldn't be a good fit.  We'd just end
up adding all of cinder-core to the project anyway. :-)
