1. Get Eucalyptus packages into the main Fedora repos. Mr. Miller,
if you
guys are using Eucalyptus at Hahvahd, maybe you could step right into this
lurch and see if the extant Fedora packages can be cleaned up and slipped
into Fedora in time for F13? If not, is there anyone else out there who
wants to step up? You've got one of the founders of Eucalyptus coming to
I'm looking at this now. I'm not sure we can reasonably make the F13 cutoff
in a week, but even if we can't do that we should be able to hit rawhide at
least.
2. Build Eucalyptus drivers for Deltacloud. The goal of the
Deltacloud
project is to unify, as much as possible, a set of open APIs for
management of all cloud providers everywhere, everyplace, FOR ALL TIME.
We're definitely interested in this too, and may be able to provide
some development time/resources. Since Eucalyptus emulates the EC2 api, it
shouldn't be hard at all.
Probably still best to branch the driver into a Eucalyptus-specific version
for the sake of making sure that feature compatibility lines up -- thoughts
on that, anyone?
In particular, once Eucalyptus packages are in Fedora proper, I think
a
whole lot more avenues start to open up.
Yes indeed!
