Hey Jon,
That actually sounds great, really, so what would you suggest, is it
possible to first _just_ upgrade the nova-compute nodes (which only have
nova-compute on it, so no nova-api nor nova-network, just nova-compute) and
let these then-soon-to-be folsom nova-compute nodes talk to the
still-unchanged Essex controller and network node(s) -- or the other way
around ?

Many thanks,
Christian.
