Yes I am interested. Are you going to push them to gerrit ?
Should we open a bug to track this change into Horizon ?

massimo do you want to open the bug on Launchpad ? So if Arne pushed
the patches on gerrit we can link them to the bug. I pointed
robcresswell to this thread, he is reading us.

thanks !

Saverio
