The goal of this session is to discuss whether the existing WSGI framework in openstack-common should be retained and used for future API work, or whether it makes more sense to look at some of the other Python web API frameworks and adopt something being used and maintained by the broader community. I will put together a few notes about why I chose not to use the openstack-common framework for the ceilometer API, and some pros and cons of other frameworks that we should evaluate.
