Are you thinking Icehouse timeframe?  Are there some blueprint type docs that you can point me to that would give me an idea of how it will work?

Thanks,

Steven.

Is there a way to present a raw device to a VM through Cinder?  It seems like I can do it with KVM specifically, but I would like to stick within the OpenStack framework if possible.

Thanks,

Steven.

Nope, not yet.  We have a raw/disk driver but it's not really useful at this point, and there are some other things in progress to get what you're looking for in the future but it looks like it will be another release before it's all implemented.
