 And from the previous emails, the proposals were basically (feel free
to correct me if I'm wrong):

1. Cloud image is the Fedora Server OS, but tailored to run in a virtual
environment and with cloud-init. (roughly what you do now).

2. A lightweight distribution made for running containers on top of.
Likely would not look much like a normal Fedora Sever, no docs., maybe
even no rpm/yum, etc. etc.

3. Tools to help Fedora users generate their own images, based upon
either #1 or #2.

...I was mostly assuming I could help with #2, and maybe #3, but
probably not as much with #1 (at least atm.).
