Redfish or Irrelevance?

[Norman James]

There is no question that OpenBMC should support Redfish in the near
future.    We were hoping someone outside might help implement Redfish as
OpenBMC got traction.

So, it seems that the standard RESTful API to BMCs is RedFish. With HP,
Intel, Dell and others on board (with at least HP iLO shipping product).

There's already an OpenStack Ironic driver for Redfish and a bunch of
other tooling.

It feels that not going this route would paint us into a corner of
irrelevance and being the tricky platform to deal with.
