The "handle allocation updates in a safe way" item and the link to "Add Generation to Consumers" spec have been added since I77f34788dd7ab8fdf60d668a4f76452e03cf9888 in the nova doc (doc/source/user/placement.rst). But it has not been added yet in the placement doc (doc/source/index.rst). So add it. Change-Id: I4c70da34d8907cab2373b1349bb2c6e9b8cdd35a
Warning: This repository is currently in a state of flux as the placement service is extracted from nova. While that is happening this repository is not yet fully working.
If you are viewing this README on GitHub, please be aware that placement development happens on OpenStack git and OpenStack gerrit.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
For the time being bugs in placement should be created in the Nova bug tracker with a tag of ``placement``.
