[dev] [jira] [Comment Edited] (LIBCLOUD-196) Support RegisterIso call in CloudStack compute driver

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-196?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13277989#comment-13277989 ]

Makes sense to leave that out of the libcloud driver.

In a perfect world, CloudStack would handle this itself -- I think that's in line with the general expectation of URL-handling. 

Since CloudStack leaves this wrinkle as a surprise to the developer, might we want to document this responsibility on the part of the developer? I'm just not sure where the best place for that might be.
