Title:
  Bug in Python API "!=" doesn't behave as expected for base.Resource
  objects

Status in python-novaclient:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The result of some OpenStack objects, for example a server or a
  volume, do not compare with None as expected. For example if a server
  has been found and is clearly not None (e.g. I can print out its name)
  the test "server!=None" will be False. This really isn't the expected
  behavior. I can worked around this by using the "server is not None"
  but this would make bugs appear very easily if I slip back into "!="
  which is my usual habit, and could be other's habit as well. I have
  attached a simple script which should reproduce the bug.
