Hello, I think this is the same case as Puppet modules that are already packaged and maintained by PKG Openstack team. This formula is part of openstack-salt project and unlike other formulas that can be found on the Internet these has some more "fashion" like extensive documentation [1] covering whole ecosystem of Openstack Salt deployment, unified structure across formulas, automated tests, etc. So in ideal state it should be possible to deploy whole Openstack infrastructure using SaltStack just by using Debian packages provided in repositories. Anyway I also wanted to package non-openstack formulas that are done in the same way [2] (it's currently about 60 formulas). Packages are also available on Launchpad PPA [3] for some time now and already used by people.
