I think you're forgetting to put users in the pictures, both existing
ones and the ones that should/could become users. Code and developers
developing in vacuum don't go anywhere. Some would argue that putting
users immediately in the picture was one of the reasons of OpenStack
success.

What do you see that Rackspace does that qualifies as 'shackles'? Lets
be specific here because if something needs to be fixing it's better to
identify it now and propose solutions.
