OK, but with rpm-ostree I'd like to highlight that it does already link to libhawkey and rpm, which are the same C libraries underlying dnf.  This is important preparatory work for package layering.

That said, has anyone built a list of blockers/issues they see?  I have made a good amount of progress on Anaconda, and I'm pretty confident of delivery by next month.

* AGREED: try min-metadata-service for fedora atomic image for alpha, fall back to cloud-init for beta if it doesn't work out (mattdm, 08:29:56)

I'm interested in this as well, although I don't see it as so critical.  Investing in thinning down cloud-init is also likely viable.

* AGREED: aim for getting python out of the fedora atomic image too, if all of the previous things line up. (mattdm, 08:34:36)

One issue I see here is that there are a lot of valid reasons to want Python on the host for configuration management type tasks, and the answer to this is to still support local package layering on top of a base tree.

I'm relatively confident I can have basic package layering by Alpha.
