Hi , I have discussed it with several Opennebula people and have also 
sent it earlier in mailing list .. here i am aggregating all of the 
discussion and my thoughts.

The bottleneck for Opennebula adaption in wide area is its User's 
registration/handling. such as

1. Currently there are no client-only package , you have to struggle 
installing either ec2 layer or occi layer above opennebula.
2.  In Eucalyptus case it was very straight forward as User's only need 
to download euca-tools and that's all .
3. Registration of users into opennebula , the generation of keys and 
injection of these keys into User's vm is really a night mare..   for 
example: for Keys injection you have to write manually in  Context 
section  .. for user registration admin has to manually enter their 
credential in oneadmin db.

I have no doubt about the extensibility and modularity of Opennebula but 
the issues are it's customer oriented strategy.
