[RFE] neutron-lib: rehome neutron.object.base along with rbac db/objects

[Boden R]

This isn't a request for a new feature per say, but rather a placeholder for the neutron drivers team to take a look at [1].

Specifically I'm hoping for drivers team agreement that the modules/functionality being rehomed in [1] makes sense; no actual (deep) code review of [1] is necessary at this point.

Assuming we can agree that the logic in [1] makes sense to rehome, I can proceed by chunking it up into smaller patches that will make the rehome/consume process easier.

This work is part of [2] that's described in [3][4]. However as commented in [1], it's also necessary to rehome the rbac db/objects modules and their dependencies that weren't discussed previously.

I think this makes sense, changing to rfe-triaged so we can discuss at drivers meeting.

Miguel - does that fact that this was moved to 'Wishlist' mean that the drivers team thinks it's OK to move forward??

[Miguel Lavalle (minsel)]

This RFE was discussed and approved by the drivers team. Please go ahead with implementation

[Brian Haley (brian-haley)]

I am going to close this as it's been a number of years and the original patch was abandoned. If someone wants to pick it up please re-open.
