But, if someone is deploying on OpenStack 1.0 APIs, that means that
they can just continue to use the version of OpenStack that they are
using. I think the decision has been made already that no changes will
be made to the 1.0 API in the future and so the code is essentially
frozen. Unless someone is going to commit to maintaining a version of
Nova that has the 1.0 API with bug fixes specifically to the 1.0 API,
I think the only path forward for those deployers is either to update
to the 1.1+ API or stay on the same version of Nova that they are
currently on.

Either way, removing the 1.0 API stuff as Waldon is suggesting won't
really make a difference, right?
