Hi all,

We in Midokura are considering to collaborate on TripleO to provide MidoNet as a
backend technology for Neutron in the overcloud.

We haven't found any vendor plugin image defined on the
`tripleo-puppet-elements` nor heat template in the `tripleo-heat-templates`...
So my first question is: Is there willingness from the TripleO folks to accept
code to deploy third-party vendors?  Alternatively (although not desirable): is
there any plugin system to work out of the tree?

I'm a noob on TripleO, so I would need some guidance for next steps to follow to
achieve our goal. I understand that work should be done on these three projects:

 * `tripleo-puppet-elements`: we do have a puppet module to configure MidoNet, I
    understand an image to install the packages will be needed.
 * `tripleo-heat-templates`: MidoNet and Neutron specific templates.
 * `tuskar`?: will we need tuskar as well?

Am I right?

Cheers,
