Rob Hirschfeld 2c1d18c85e Complete Havana capabilities as passed by the Board in July 2014
This change includes capabilities descriptions from Troy,
  Sergey, Julia & Rocky.

PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR DESCRIPTION OR NAME CHANGES...
+1 the file and then submit patches against it
we know that the tests, names and descriptions are incomplete.

The tests are NOT included in the capabilities because more
review is needed.  We expect that they will be updated
after the schema with capabilities are approved.

Understanding the DefCore JSON Schema

This folder contains DefCore committee managed files that provide trusted guidance for the OpenStack community.

Assets for each release are tracked in dedicated subdirectories so JSON schema may change per release if needed.

NOTE: Changes to file requires approval of the DefCore committee chair(s).

          "complete"],
      "admin" : true,
      "core" : false,
      "description" : "Helpful Description",
      "flagged" : [  ],
