In our hearts and minds, we are open source and stand for maximizing the openness of options for users, who, of course, should expect nothing less than to be able to use whatever OS best fits their specific needs. But, the question remains open to differing opinions and will certainly be subject to ongoing debate.

A 2016 To-Do List for the OpenStack Board
Some OpenStack clouds behave differently than others, even if they support the same set of APIs and run the same code produced by the community. This translates into hurdles for applications to be ported from one OpenStack Powered cloud to another. Things like support for IPv6 or tenant networks need to be known by application developers as much as the list of available guest operating systems.
