Folks,

I moderated the above referenced session at Boston Summit (sorry for
posting the summary a bit late - because of personal reason).

The etherpad of the session [1] gives you the details of the discussion.
 Based upon the discussions, there were two critical take aways from this
session:

   - IP address allocation (DHCP) for the default/basic configurations. It
   would be desirable, for simpler deployments, to allow a straightforward
   method to specify the IP address for an instance - e.g. one should be able
   to use config drive to config the address and pass it to neutron
   - The documentation for simpler deployments is bit confusing. It is more
   OVS centric and does not provide clear documentation or steps for non-OVS
   deployments. Perhaps update it so that user that are not familiar with
   neutron should be able to deploy instances by answering few simple
   questions in a single config file.  I have filed an RFE [2] to address this.
