The Balancing API will be augmented to include the capabilities described in the above MRs. In addition, it will implement balancing in all devices that presently are done in the Managers.

It would be nice to attach the latest version of the project charter and link it somewhere on this page. -- AmyShelton

2. Implementation & Deployment Plan

We believe that the implementation of the new Balancing API and scheme will take 1 FTE-cycle. However, we would like to spread the work over two cycles in order to accomodate work being done on other projects. We propose using C1 and C2 of 2007 for implementation, which will culminate in the release of the new Balancing API and scheme at the end of C2 2007.
