Open Stack

Jay,

In Paris, we had one spec and zero core.

By the time we hit Vancouver, we will have a few scenarios working
with 3 milestones.

Come vancouver, We'll definitely know for sure if there is appetite
and interest in the community for this set of abstractions and
packaging we have currently in progress/proposed in the
developer/deployer community. Interesting times as they say :)

Thanks,
dims
