Swift Specs Repository

This is a git repository for doing design review on enhancements to OpenStack Swift. This provides an ability to ensure that everyone has signed off on the approach to solving a problem early on.

Repository Structure

The expected structure of the respository is as follows:

specs/
    swift/
    swift-bench/
    swiftclient/

Implemented specs will be moved to an implemented directory under the respective project directory.

Revisiting Specifications

We don't always get everything right the first time. If we realize we need to revisit a specification because something changed, either we now know more, or a new idea came in which we should embrace, we'll manage this by proposing an update to the specification in question.

Learn As We Go

This is a new way of attempting things, so we're going to be low in process to begin with to figure out where we go from here. Expect some early flexibility in evolving this effort over time.
