The point raised by Matt for Nova applies to Neutron as well.
Neutron does not have strict deadlines for blueprint approval; however even
if in theory it would still be possible to achieve this for Mitaka, it is
rather unlikely since the number of blueprints already in the pipeline is
way more than what can reasonably be implemented in this release cycle.
Anyway, it would be a matter of resuscitate the blueprint [1] and pretty
much rework it in light of the discussion we had around "usage APIs" with
the API working group [2]
I will be happy to assist with design and implementations. so if you have
any requirement from the horizon side, like the ability of filtering either
by tenant or resource just let me know.
