Description

We've already got a full (all API/features, mock and integration tests) implementation of etcd using jclouds here and would like to essentially donate the code to jclouds for others to use. This api does not and really can not have a compute api so it's just supporting the API as described here: https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/master/Documentation/api.md

What do you guys think? Not sure if you guys would take it seeing as how there is no compute front-end but others I have to imagine, those working with coreos for whatever reason, would love to have an easy to use jclouds-API to work with an administer an etcd cluster ... lord knows we do.

And if you say yes don't worry I will NOT be sending in the entire code base as 1 giant PR. I'll break up it up into much smaller chunks for folks to digest.

Thoughts? nacx
