(This also reduces dependencies.) +* Continue to migrate useful common code into osc-lib for use by + plugins and stand-alone CLIs. This includes basic command support + code that is not API-specific. + +The os-client-config library is also included in the OpenStackClient +project. Our plans for it in the near future are: +* Refactor the primary configuration functionality to allow flexibility + to support different needs in calling applications, such as the order + of operations and plugin loading. +* Collect all of the 'magic' configuration bits used in multiple apps + in one place so we can converge support for common user expectations. + +Most of all, I want to see us continue our mission of providing a +(wait for it...) consistent interface to OpenStack via the CLI. +Sometimes this means changing how we think about certain operations +in individual projects, sometimes it means providing direction for new +operations, and mostly it means finding the common ground that makes +our users lives simpler. + +I thank you and am honored by your support. +
