I like the plan a lot, it looks like the major issue now is the
integration of imgfac/oz with koji
I happen to have worked with imgfac and know decently its REST interface
but, for the scope of this project, can't we just stick to Oz?
I don't think imgfac would add much to the process while it will instead
prevent us from passing customized kickstarts to Oz
Given the current choices, IMO, Oz seems reasonable. It's been tested for more than a
couple of years, being used by Rackspace, & other communities.
On a relevant note, there's further work being done in this area by Dan Berrange to
consolidate using libosinfo [1] --

this said, I think I could help with koji... who should I ping?

would it be worth trying some ARM build?
