[Robert Esker <esker@xxxxxxx>]

Renuka et al,

I won't be able to attend tomorrow or Friday, but if we can keep this distribution (or perhaps just openstack-volume@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) in sync w/ meeting notes and such then that ought work.  The other items we'd like to focus on are NAS "volumes" and a blueprint that we (NetApp) will be submitting shortly around integration with our (NetApp's) storage service catalog capability.  The NAS blueprint is here:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/filedriver/

Thanks,

Rob Esker

I'm wondering if it would be of value/interest to conduct a meeting (IRC, phone, ???)?  I'm open with regards to the format, but I think there are a number of things that folks are interested in here and it might be useful to try and see if we can coordinate a bit to actually contribute something that offers reuse for everybody.
