The benefit I saw of shade packaged with RDO is that it depends on the
openstack python libs. The integrated configuration provided by RDO where I
don't have to depend on EPEL is an advantage from a package management
point of view. It is much easier to trace provenance of our build  when
we're not trying to keep extra stuff from EPEL sneaking in as we do
upgrades where version's may not match up on all sources.

 Are there any plans to package the shade client library as part of RDO? We

 Having a version of shade packaged along with the other RDO packages in the
 release would be quite useful.
 Ansible is already part of Fedora.  Shade should be a Fedora-first
 library.  RDO can then make use of it.
 In general, client tools are going to go into Fedora, but not necessarily
 all of the server pieces.  This makes sense from a Desktop perspective;  to
 interact with an RDO deployment, you need the OpenStack client on your
 workstation.  RDO will be responsbility for only handling the server
 pieces;  the amount of effort it has taken to keep OpenStack services
 running on Fedora has been deemed a bridge too far; RDO will focus on
 CentOS based deployments.
 RDO will then pull whatever client pieces it requires from Fedora.  Shade
 does not necessarily have be part of RDO;  it could be pulled in via EPEL,
 but having Shade in and Ansible Openstack modules in RDO seems like a
 natural fit.
 If this is something where community participation would be helpful I'd be
 happy to try to help out if someone had details on what would need to be
 done.
