That's why I'm only half-minded. But yes, I am saying that. The more I think about it, having a tailored image with cloud-init might be the way to go -- then we can measure and see how much it is used in comparison. Alternately, here's a crazy idea: the min-metadata service could detect if userdata is in a syntax it doesn't understand and fire off a helper script. That helper script could then install and exec cloud-init. -- Matthew Miller -- Fedora Project -- <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
