Tweaking DefCore to subdivide OpenStack platform (proposal for review)>
For nearly two years, the OpenStack Board has been moving towards creating a common platform definition that can help drive interoperability.

The following material will be a major part of the discussion for The OpenStack Board meeting on Monday 10/20. Comments and suggest welcome!
