Dear Ruben,

I would like just to make sure I understand that statement correctly. 
Does it mean it will be possible to update a some "customizable" set of 
VM template parameters in the next release i.e. what you wrote about in [1]?

I had migrated recently my ONE installation from OpenNebula 3.6. to 
3.8.1 successfully but a possibility to update some VM parameters (e.g. 
Description) what I am still missing.

Best regards and thanks a lot to whole OpenNebula team for great product!
Nikolay.
