Hmmmm -- I'm not sure that's the way we should slice it. Not to lean too
hard on the pets-vs-cattle analogy, but long-term, I think that's the better
distinction -- which probably includes systems running on bare metal under
the "cloud" umbrella. OpenStack and possibly oVirt compute nodes tend to
fall in the "cattle" category too, and one can easily see a server farm
running many near-identical Atomic instances on bare metal.

We *could* go the other way -- cloud being virt guests and server being bare
metal. From the perspective of putting together the release, that does make
some sense, but I think it's mostly a useful distinction from _that_
direction, and not so useful from the user/usecase side.
