Mine is a templating system that takes the network/interfaces and rewrites
it in the late-commands. Daneyon's is a set of interface-patching and
service restart blocks. His is closely integrated with the openstack
block and simplifies some config at the expense of limiting possible
options; mine's entirely openstack-independent and you can write what
interface definitions you like (but no clues: it's just a raw interface
file).
