Open Stack

Hello again -
In yesterday's team meeting, Brian Lamar brought up a good point - why name
the API projects after the project name, why not the product name? This
makes a lot of sense to me. So the names for the API repos will be:

compute-api
identity-api (should this be auth-api?)
image-api
storage-api (should this be object-api?)

Let me know your feedback on this naming standard.

Thanks Jay for catching the keystone-api typo. :)

Anne
