I got zero responses on the mailing list raising a problem with Glance v2 [1].

I got zero responses on cross project meeting raising a problem with Glance v2
[2].

I'm very happy with my choice of words, because I think this hand slap on
Glance is the first time I got acknowledgement in my frustration with Glance.

I should not have to attend a Glance meeting to get someone to fix Glance v2
integration issues in Cinder.

Glance is trying to increase v2 integration with Nova besides show [3], but
I would recommend Nova to not accept further v2 integration until Glance has
figured out how to handle issues in projects that already have v2 integration.

To start, Glance should assign a cross project liaison [4] to actually respond
to integration issues in Cinder.

Having focuses on the following is not helping:

* Artifacts (I honestly don't know what this is and failed to find an
  explanation that's *not* some API doc).
* Tagging
* Role based properties [5] (who is asking for this, and why is Glance
  enforcing roles?)

This is a mess, and complete lack of focus on being what Glance was once good
at, a registry for images.
