Google Compute Engine Fedora Images (status update)

[Michael Hall]

Awesome work Vaidas!

I am keen to test the KS file, but unfortunately am moving house tomorrow
and will not be doing much Fedora for maybe two weeks.

For what it's worth I have just joined Git and uploaded a first attempt at
defining a leaner Fedora 20 kernel:

Looking forward to getting back into this!

Mike
