This is the code (as of early June 2014) that allows Ceilometer to transform notifications from nova (the compute engine) into samples that are stored. There's something fundamentally wrong here, I think. This is a great deal of class oriented code for what appears to be a static (or nearly static) transform. This should be declarative. Adding another meter should not be a matter of adding code, it should be a matter of adding configuration.
