Re: [libvirt] [PATCH RFC] Remove the Open Nebula driver

The Open Nebula driver has been unmaintained since it was first introduced. The only commits have been for tree-wide cleanups. It also has a major design flaw, in that it only knows about guests that it has created itself, which makes it of very limited use. Discussions wrt evolution of the VMWare ESX driver, concluded that it should limit itself to single-node ESX operation and not try to manage the multi-node architecture of VirtualCenter. Open Nebula is a cluster like Virtual Center, not a single node system, so reasoning applies. The DeltaCloud project includes an Open Nebula driver and is a much better fit architecturally, since it is explicitly targetting the distributed multihost cluster scenario. Thus this patch deletes the libvirt Open Nebula driver with the recommendation that people use DeltaCloud for managing it instead.
