We were working on providing the necessary functionality in Keystone but stopped when we heard of the alternative solution. We could resume the conversation about what is needed on the Keystone side and implement if needed.

Understood, timing is everything. I'll let Chris talk about expected timing for the replacement.  From a deployers side, nothing would really change, just some configuration options ... but a replacement should be available.

I'm sure we could get it working pretty easily. The Keystone integration was the biggest pita.

I can keep this branch fresh with trunk for when we're ready to pull the trigger.

+1 to Vish's points. I know there are some folks coming online in the Folsom timeline that can help out with the new stuff, but this feels a bit like going backwards.

I am all for pulling this out, but I'm a bit concerned with the fact that we have nothing to replace it with. There are some groups still trying to use it. MercadoLibre is trying to use it for example. I know you guys are trying to replace this with something better, but it would be nice not to break people for 7+ months


So I guess I have some questions:
1.a) is the current implementation completely broken?

1.b) if yes, is it fixable

2) If we do remove this, what can we tell people that need something like zones between now and the Folsom release?

As part of the new (and optional) Zones code coming down the pipe, part of this is to remove the old Zones implementation.

So, can I? can I? Huh?
