Comment 7 for bug 1256009

Hi Laurens, welcome to novaclient. The reason for the code duplication you notice is that there are two versions of the nova api active: v2.0 and v3, represented as v1_1 and v3 in the novaclient code. You can see similar duplication on the server side:

v2: https://github.com/openstack/nova/tree/master/nova/api/openstack/compute/contrib
v3: https://github.com/openstack/nova/tree/master/nova/api/openstack/compute/plugins/v3

You are right that you should fix things for both versions. If you do some openstack-dev mailing list archive searches, you can find discussions on the code duplication.
