Subject: Re: [libcloud] vCloud driver provider

Thanks Jerry,

In that case I should ask whether support for v1.0 of the REST API
specs is planned to be introduced. At the moment v0.8 seems to have
been hardcoded within drivers/vcloud.py which doesn't offer much
expansion room for the versioning aspect of vCloud API.
