Update on the 24 hours since the last update:

tl;dr: glance cores, do not approve any substantial code changes until
after the functional tests are restored.  See below for details.

Still good.

It's still in the gate.  Due to an unfortunate concatenation of
circumstances, today's gerrit restart occurred at the same time zuul
had passed this patch, and the success was not recorded, and it had to
be rechecked.  I believe it was moved up in the queue (thanks, infra
team!), but nonetheless it's been in the integrated queue for > 7
hours now, with zuul projecting completion in 58 minutes.

This one still depends on #2, so no action yet.

I'm still hopeful, though less hopeful than I was.  In any case, do
not approve any substantial changes until the functional tests have
been restored.

This patch got caught in the gerrit restart, too, and is being
re-processed (and it looks like it's going to fail, although not
because of glance ... the cross-glance-py* jobs were both successful.

These continue to be areas of active interest.

On the plus side, we did release the python-glanceclient 2.9.1 today.
