We worked on this at FUDCon.

Summary:
This feature expands Fedora's current cloud image deliverables beyond just
EC2, and overhauls how they are produced. The goal is to produce cloud
images for EC2 and other cloud deployments for the Alpha, Beta, and Final
compose process and distribute them on the mirror network. There will also
be nightly or weekly image builds for Rawhide to assist with early
development. All images should be constructed using a newer generation of
tools.
Comments and input *very* welcome.
When images are generated very often it's usually nice to have them
somehow validated :-) For RHEL EC2 images we have special testing tool:
https://github.com/RedHatQE/valid/tree/threaded
It lacks good docs but it's fixable.
We can create special 'validation' server for Fedora EC2 (at least)
images. The workflow will be the following:
1) Images are generated
2) Images are getting uploaded to EC2
3) Validation job is being supplied (for all regions/archs/...).
4) Depending on the result images are considered 'released' (their ids
are published somewhere, ...) or 'failed' (investigation is required).
In validation we can have as many tests as we want: features,
regressions, package set, ...
Does it make sense?
