Open Stack

Hi,

Few years ago (I don’t know exactly when it started as I wasn’t very active upstream than for sure) Neutron team started work on new neutron module for Devstack. See [1] for details.
But since then this new module is still not ready to use. For example in gate jobs we are still using lib/neutron-legacy module as this new one is always causing some problems.
Things in its current shape may be confusing for new Devstack users as in fact to deploy Neutron properly they should use lib/neutron-legacy instead of lib/neutron now.
Personally I never really checked exactly what issues are there in fact but I do remember some issues with using lib/neutron e.g. on subnodes in multinode jobs - see [2].

So I would like to ask a question what do You think we should do with it.
Is there maybe any volunteer who would like to continue this work on adopting lib/neutron and to finally use it in gate jobs?
Or if there is no anyone and we are all fine with using old module, maybe we should remove this lib/neutron and “undeprecate” and rename lib/neutron-legacy?
