Overview

The openstacklib module is a part of Stackforge, an effort by the Openstack infrastructure team to provide continuous integration testing and code review for Openstack and Openstack community projects not part of the core software. The module itself is used to expose common functionality between Openstack modules as a library that can be utilized to avoid code duplication.
