Thanks for looking at this again.  My initial thought is to complete the 
work as it's so close, this topic has the remaining abandoned reviews, 
https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:new-neutron-devstack-in-gate

I wish I remembered more about why we never finished, I only remember 
bgpvpn needed some work, just don't remember much else.  Could 
definitely do some of the reviews.
