[Openstack] Fwd: [Quantum] Public Network spec proposal

Thank you again for your feedback.

On the discussion about two or three-way logic, I understand Yong's point
of being able to fetch public and private networks in one call, but I also
I agree with Endre that using a boolean flag for something which is
actually Yes/No/Whatever sounds confusing and is different by what the
Openstack CLI usually does.

Hence, if we have a large agreement on the need of being able to specify
whether we want public networks, private networks or both, I'd go for the
approach #3 in the design proposal, as suggested by Gary, and the CLI
option would became something like --network_type={public|private|both}.

On the agent issue raised by Gary - I'm afraid I don't understand. Gary,
could you please elaborate more?

Regards,
Salvatore
