Folks are still trickling back from the summit, so things haven't ground fully back into action yet. But some progress has been made: GET /allocation_candidates ========================== The refactor series starting at [1] has started to merge. The series has included a number of useful tests, revealed a number of juicy bugs, and even fixed some of them. The same series is also starting to accomodate traits, which can now be fed into AllocationCandidates.get_by_requests() since [2]. Once nested is accounted for (code still not started) we'll activate these new goodies in the placement API via [3].

Please let's get some core eyes on this. However, the top of the series is seeing some new action starting at [5]: we're in the process of implementing a ComputeDriver.update_provider_tree method that will allow a virt driver to manage the nested provider structure and inventory associated with its compute node(s) - something like [6] and [7].
