What's the fundamental difference between these scripts and devstack 
(http://www.devstack.org) - is it just that devstack normally pulls from 
the devel repositories? It looks like it can also be configured to pull 
from stable releases as well.

Mostly curiosity, though I did notice today that Devstack directly 
references F16, and that their FAQ states that Quantum isn't fully 
supported because of lack of OpenVSwitch packages - of course, that was 
F16, but that changed in F17...  but I do wonder if that specific point 
deters people from trying devstack out with the Fedora configuration, or 
even stops people from looking more closely at Fedora's implementation 
in ways aside from doing so with Devstack.
