Re: Removal of VSA Code
+1
I'd like to see a way for plugins to be able to modify the DB schema. There's no easy way for a plugin to be able to add a column to a core nova table, for instance.
In any case, I'm +1 on removing the vsa code for Essex.

This problem, an outdated plugin, it's not new (Hyper-V), and with the increasing numbers of them (storage like Zadara, Nexenta... network with Nicira, BigSwitch, Citrix...) we need a policy to deal with this. From the vendor point of view, it's not easy to follow the development release cycle that OpenStack has now days, with so many changes day after day. Maybe plugins should be out of OpenStack code, and let vendors to publish them after the release.
