[Openstack] Announcing Dwarf - OpenStack API on top of libvirt/kvm

Hi all,

I have this little pet project of mine that reached a state where it might
be useful to others.

Dwarf is a simple service, that provides support for a subset of the
OpenStack API on top of a locally running libvirt daemon (with KVM in the
back). The main driver for this is to have a somewhat simple and isolated
environment to test OpenStack guest images and as such, it supports
importing images and keypairs and booting instances and some more.

There are lots of restrictions and short-comings and bugs too but if you
want to check it out, the source is here (along with some more
information): https://github.com/juergh/dwarf/

Pre-built packages for Ubuntu Precise and Saucy are available from my PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~juergh/+archive/dwarf

Comments, feedback, bug reports and suggestions are more than welcome.

Enjoy
...Juerg
