===============================
OpenStack Ceilometer plugin for collectd.
This plugin for collectd publishes telemetry data gathered by collectd to
Ceilometer. This enables a more comprehensive telemetry set to be made
available to Ceilometer which will enable smarter scheduling and environmental
service assurance monitoring.
