(Actually, I could only find one of these): + + * ``vmware_store_image_dir`` (and its default value is + 'openstack_glance') + +:solution: * Make the language in Exception messages, log messages, and + the configuration option help text neutral, for example, replace + 'image' by 'object' and any other appropriate language changes. + + * Introduce new configuration options for any options with + image-centric names and deprecate the old options using the + facilities oslo.config supplies for this purpose. + +:impacts: The deprecated options will be listed in a release note.
