simplestreams json or index.asc for deliverables in the new list-of-deliverables?

[Matthew Miller]

FESCo Ticket #1427 <https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1427>
formalizes the list of deliverables for each Fedora release. Cool.

Let's go a step beyond this and make a machine-readable list, at least
of image-based deliverables. One approach would be to use using Ubuntu's simplestreams
format, documented at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~smoser/simplestreams/trunk/view/head:/doc/README.>

A second option would be the index.asc as used by virt-builder:
<https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5805>

That way, we'd have a standardized way for applications to find and
download/launch/whatever various Fedora images. This is a definite need
(see https://fedorahosted.org/cloud/ticket/93) and rather than
inventing a new wheel, maybe we could see if we could pound one of
these into shape.
