I haven't yet contacted DSA about this, but I'd rather make that point to a place where both user- and developer-oriented information could be found (others would call that a "Debian Cloud portal", but we don't need such buzz-ness :-P). Do we have, at present, such a place? I've looked at http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud which seems to go in the right direction, but might need some work. Would do you think of this plan? Is anyone on this list interested in reworking a bit the "cloud" info we offer via that page? > I am not sure if we need an Alioth project.

Disclaimer: I'm not doing any packaging work related to Debian "cloud" stuff up to now, so I surely welcome living this choice to the people who are doing that work. Still, I wonder which benefit do you see in scattering the packages across the various, programming language oriented, projects you mention above. That would mean that people interesting in more than one cloud related package will have to join several teams. Clearly, we can turn the argument around saying that people interested in, say, Python packaging will have to join the cloud Alioth project. But to me the former case seems significantly more likely than the latter, no?
