I have a Post-it on my montior to follow up with what we talked about at
the PTG.
AFAIK, the next steps were to use the examples we went through and apply
them to nova [0] using oslo.limit. We were hoping this would do two things.
First, it would expose any remaining gaps we have in oslo.limit that need
to get closed before other services start using the library. Second, we
could iterate on the example in gerrit as a nova review and making it
easier to merge when it's working.
Is that still the case and if so, how can I help?
