Open Stack

Overall I think this is a good idea and the time frame proposal also
looks good. Few suggestions in-line.

+2 . I think 2 months is a reasonable time frame. Though, I think this
should be done on glance , python-glanceclient and glance-store repos
and not glance-specs. Specs can sometimes need to sit and wait while
discussion may happen at other places and then a gist is added back the
spec.

+2 . No comments, looks clean.

While I think that one may give someone a email/irc heads up if the
proposer doesn't show up and we will use the context and wisdom of
feedback this sorta seems to imply for a general case when a developer
is new and their intent to get a patch in one cycle isn't clear.

I added some comments above for possible brainstorming. No serious
objections, looking forward to this cleanup process.
