I think that as a project we should be looking at ways to be good
nieghbours to other Open Source Infrastructure projects (both inside and
outside of the OpenStack Foundation).

From the Foundation level I think we fall into the Data Centre Stratigic
Focus Area, and this is a good place for us to focus our efforts -
becoming the Linux of the datacentre is a good goal.

This does not mean just compute either - replacing as much of the DC
boxes as we can should be our goal.

Things like load balancing, networking, DNS (of course), GPUs /
FPGAs, are all as much a part of automating the datacentre as compute
and storage.

Doing it in a way that is portable, so that other projects know that if
they target OpenStack as a base they get a known base is also core to
this.
