Ya I setup both for my Aeolus demo at the OLF [1] and both were on par
as far as the complexity of the configuration needed.

A cloud is a complicated service involving orchestrating quite a few
components that may be complicated in their own right. Still think there
is alot of up in the air regarding cloud computing! Got this impression
from the conference as well, everyone seemed to have a different
preferred IaaS implementation including the two mentioned and more

Just curious as to why we can't do this. Can't we leverage qemu if
running in a vm? Will this be alleviated when kvm supports virt-in-virt?
