[Openstack] [Keystone] [Swift] Keystone Tenant vs Swift Account

Hi,

For Nova, the Keystone Tenant maps to a Nova project, and according to the "Finalize Auth integration" blueprint, the Nova project is going away ("no more project/roleuser info in nova").

What about Swift's account?  I assume the Keystone tenant would map to a Swift account.  How would this mapping occur?  Would Swift still maintain account information in the db and these will get synchronized with Keystone tenant information (i.e., auto-create accounts), or would Swift get rid of the account concept and have a mapping between tenant and containers instead?  If there is any existing blue-print/docs on Keystone/Swift integration plan for Diablo, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Liem
