We've talked about this for a while, but let's make it formal. The plan
is to transition from Cloud as a Fedora Edition to Something Container
Clustery (see
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Objectives/ProjectFAO).
But, we still need cloud as a _deploy target_. The FAO-container-thing
will continue to have cloud image deploy targets (as well as bare
metal). I think it makes sense to _also_ have Fedora Server as a cloud
deploy target.
Could we make sure that whatever targets we have are actually getting
tested? The fact that autocloud has said it was broken for months but
the cloud sig wasn't looking or fixing says that before we get to step
2, we need to say 'is anyone more than 2 people really interested?' It
should be ok to say 'no we aren't.' without people diving into the
fire trying to rescue something that unless it was on fire they
wouldn't have helped.
This could possibly be both a Fedora Server Minimal Cloud Image and
Fedora Server Batteries Included Image — but that'd be up to Server WG,
I think.
Overall, I'm proposing:
1. Dissolve Cloud WG (See below; don't panic)
2. Form new Atomic WG or FAO WG (name to be bikeshedded)
(a lot of overlap in membership with current Cloud WG, of course!)
3. _Keep_ Cloud SIG as a gathering point around cloud technology and
covering shared underlying technology (fedimg, koji cloud image
production, autocloud). Think of this as analogous in some ways
to something like the ARM SIG.
4. Change
https://getfedora.org/cloud/ to
https://getfedora.org/atomic/ or
https://getfedora.org/fao/
5. Create new
http://cloud.fedoraproject.org/ in the same style as
https://arm.fedoraproject.org/
6. New Atomic/FAO WG produces Whatever New Deliverable (starting
with Two Week Atomic)
7. Cloud Base Image becomes base (uh, see what I did there?) for new
Fedora Server cloud image (or images).
8. Vagrant image _probably_ the same — or maybe becomes its own
thing?
9. ???
10. Profit!
