As a side note, we have the ability to start doing things along these
lines w/ the Snap project [1] which I'm hoping to allocate some cycles
to / get back to in the near future.
Mike had a good idea where we could introduce an output formatter and
generate Imagefactory TDLs along w/ snapshots via Snap. That way you
could take a cloud instance and generate a template from it, which can
then be used in conjunction w/ imagefactory to create images for other
provides based on the original instance.
Need to start looking into how long that and the other things that
need TBD will take (there are also some issues / patches that have
been reported via the upstream github project).
Will start putting some preliminary tasks on Redmine for further
consideration. All in all, if we start adding these ideas to redmine
under the 'next sprint candidates' milestones, we can evaluate /
review / prioritize these stories more formally there.
