Open Stack

Hi Tom, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Thoughts in line and
we can definitely discuss more in Tokyo.

Interesting, I¹m not sure I agree that the user stories are only confined
to OpenStack software. As product managers we tend to think about the
value a product can provide from the entire experience, not just the bits
and bytes. Perhaps we have a misalignment in PWG scope/intent on that
front. PWG friends, care to comment?

Awesome, yes I¹d love to get in touch with those folks.

I¹m not certain, the configuration file would likely need to be
dynamically generated based on deployment config provided by the operator.

Quite possibly, and we had a similar discussion around Capacity Planning.
In that discussion we agreed that if the end result of the use case is
that teams look at it and say, ³Hey, we should make sure we integrate with
existing software or make room for a new piece of software that needs to
be developed.² then I would call that a win.
