Thanks Brian, just read through your post.

I'm still a little confused with the whole v2/v1 api?

We currently have an Essex cloud in production. When we upgrade to Folsom should we be using v1 or v2 api?
If I use the v2 api I don't need glance-registry at all? Is glance registry going away?
glance-api should/should not point to the same DB as glance-registry?
If you have multiple glance-apis they all need to talk to the same DB?

In Grizzly, you'll see this become more flexible, but for now you're stuck either configuring the sql params in glance-api or disabling the v2 API altogether (enable_v2_api=False).
