I think initially we are not wanting to interface with fas directly. 
We could revisit that I suppose... it might be nice to have groups in
fas update the cloud permissions, but I have no idea how hard that will
be.

Yes. We have a class C of external IP's. 
Of course there may be some instances that will not need to use
external ip's, but many will.

Just something based on them, or related I guess.

Yeah, true.

Yes. we have already largely phased out public test systems in favor of
$application.dev instances for development of applications. 

If we can work it, I'd love for our *dev instances to move to this as
well. I suspect many of them are idle a lot of the time, and it would
be great to have it so a dev could just bring one up, work on it, and
then snapshot/drop it.
