Not that I'm adding much to this conversation that hasn't been said
already, but I am pro v2 API, purely because of how painful and long
it's been to get the official OpenStack projects to adopt the v2 API
from v1. I know we need to be sort of concerned about other 'client's
that call the API, but for me that's way down the lists of concerns.
If we go to v3 API, most likely it's going to be another 3+ years before
folks can use the new Cinder features that the microversioned changes
will provides. This in effect invalidates the microversion capability
in Cinder's API completely.
