Thank you for adding this "back" into the consciousness. Good to know that there are still things that we agree upon. Thanks for the positive feedback.

However I think that we should focus where the real value potential is and for me that's further up the stack. The <a href="http://www.occi-wg.org/" rel="nofollow">Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI)</a> working group at OGF will be officially announced this week and should have an implementable draft for the first multi-vendor open IaaS API within a month. That is to say the problem, while a blocker today, is easily fixed and will naturally result in the focus shifting upwards. For users (and after all it's all about the users, not the people who service their needs) the value is in being able to drag documents from Google Docs to Zoho and vice versa... that's where things get hairy (standardisation without stifling innovation is hard) but here's hoping efforts like the <a href="http://www.opencloudinitiative.org/" rel="nofollow">Open Cloud Initaitive (OCI)</a> can deliver a happy medium.
