Monty,

I try to read up on the glance image upload workflow in v2, though I
struggle understanding the v2 "task" concept and the related workflows. And
I haven't found anything about how to use the glance CLI for the workflows.

It would help if we got it out of your brain somehow. Are the shell scripts
anywhere accessible?

A question to the user guide team: 

Is end-/admin-user documentation for the v2 glance CLI client commands on
the radar? The reference exists
(http://docs.openstack.org/cli-reference/content/glanceclient_commands.html)
, but I haven't found anything on concepts and workflows.

Bernd

+100!

Let me know any way I can be helpful ... I've got a bunch of knowledge of
the stuff you have to do in my brain and in some shell scripts we have to
use to do things.
