Chuck,

What does this mean in terms of APIs?  Will there be a separate Volume API?  Will volumes be embedded in the compute API?

Openstack Community,

Through the last few months the Lunr team has learned many things.  This
week, it has become clear to us that it would be better to integrate
with the existing Nova Volume code. It is upon these reflections that we
have decided to narrow the focus of the Lunr Project.

Lunr will continue to focus on delivering an open commodity storage
platform that will integrate with the Nova Volume service.  This will
be accomplished by implementing a Nova Volume driver. We will work
with the Nova team, and other storage vendors, to drive the features
needed to provide a flexible volume service.

I believe that this new direction will ensure a bright future for storage
in Nova, and look forward to continuing to work with everyone in making this
possible.

Sincerely,

Chuck Thier (@creiht)
