[Openstack] S3 Compatability (Was RE: EC2 compatibility?)

Seems useful to have some versioned documents that compare a specific openstack release (swift or nova) against a specific ec2/s3 release (whichever one is aimed for for a given openstack release).

This way bug reporting and feature requests become easier to create (and determine if they need to be created).

>From looking at the http://wiki.openstack.org/Nova/EucalyptusFeatureComparison its hard to tell which version of openstack to compare this to since it looks from the diablo-3 release certain apis are there that are not shown in this document as being active (ie StartInstances).

Maybe the same kind of wiki is needed for both swift and nova.

Hi Caitlin,

Right now the best source of what S3 features are available through
the S3 compatibility layer are here:
