Please take a look at

These are the about-a-dozen changes we decided we are going to file for F21. We need to actually file them by Tuesday.
A couple of these have been spoken for, but most of them not. It would be incredibly excellent if people could help out here. You don't necessarily need to do all of the work, or in fact (in some cases at least) any of it, as long as you can talk to people and coordinate effort. These are all things we've already agreed we want to work on so there should be no actual controversy.
And, even if you don't want that level of commitment, it actually helps to just start filling out the empty templates (linked in the bugs above).
I am super-busy today, and probably tomorrow, and my weekend is spoken for by Northeast Linux Fest and hopefully some family time on Sunday. So, I'm planning on devoting Monday to this, but I'd also not like to leave it all til then, so -- whatever you can contribute to between now and then = awewsome.
Thanks everyone!

Also, each page says that you are not to edit that template and you should copy it. Don't be confused -- I *did* copy them, but didn't make that edit at all, so they all start that way. First thing to fix, I guess. :)
Hi list, Matt,
I'm looking at https://fedorahosted.org/cloud/ticket/23; What is the desired status of the refactoring? Have some changes already been agreed upon? Would it be possible to replace cloud-init completely? (For instance, https://github.com/cernvm/amiconfig looks quite minimalistic...)
Cheers, milan

Replacing it completely is tall order, but if someone is really enthused, it's possible. There are a number of other candidates, including Colin Walters' min-metadata-service and CoreOS's implementation. Any of them would be a lot of work, though, especially to make sure that the various things people actually want to do in practice are covered.
Right now, and most urgently, the problem is that it depends on the Cheetah templating library, which pulls in image and font libraries which have no business being in the image (and which are likely to significantly increase the burden of respinning for security updates). Frankie Onuonga was working on this a little bit. If we can fix that for F21, I'll be happy.
Also, talk to Garrett (gholms), the current maintainer and coordinate with him.

Because I was just talking to him about this on IRC, I should add. :)
