Hello. This is rather different email; I'd like to see some vision of work (or mission?) in debian-cloud. After finishing porting GCE to bootstrap-vz I'm trying to decide what to do next. I do not have main itch to scratch regarding cloud as I do not deal with cloud on daily basis. I still want to use cloud to test my GPGPU packages (the main reason I got interested in debian-cloud) but IIRC there are still problem with using Debian on cg1.* and g2.* Is someone looking at it, or should I try to see what is missing? When looking at code I can see that we are calling apt-get, apt-key, and so on to deal with installing packages. Would it make more sense to use python-apt instead, and not parse /etc/apt/sources.list ourselves? I'm also thinking about adding few "cloudy" plugins - e.g. sending SNS notification when image is ready, not requiring providing AWS key and secret in manifest but using ones on ~/.boto file, or even adding support to profiles from ~/.boto. Or - maybe look at documentation? Basically I'm looking for something to do ;-) The most important is using cloud to test my packages, but I'm not sure if it's doable without help from Amazon - or at least knowing why images are not starting, or having logs similar to ones that we have from GCE serial console.
