Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 21:07:54 UTC 
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/oslo/+spec/no-kombu-default.

Description:

Historically, it seems that the Kombu driver is default because it existed before all others, before there was an abstraction. With multiple implementations now available, it may be time for a change.

Why?
* A default skews the practical testing scenarios, ensuring maturity of one driver over others.
* The kombu driver does not work "out of the box", so it is no more reasonable as a default than impl_fake.
* The RPC code is now in openstack-common, so addressing this later will only create additional technical debt.

In Grizzly, we will allow projects to deprecate the choice of Kombu as the default so that it may be removed in a future release.
