I'm at LinuxCon, which is also at the same time CloudOpen and
ContainerCon. The sample size is small and the audience skewed, but:
I've talked to several (three) people using/testing Fedora Atomic, at
least one of them fairly seriously; no one using Cloud Base image.

That's not to say that they don't exist (hi there!), but I think user
interest/excitement around Atomic is clear. Perhaps more crucially as
we make this plan, I think the people who want basic-Fedora-in-the-cloud
are less likely to be a "wedge" audience, where we can market that as
their first exposure to Fedora and from there possibly grow into more
areas. Rather, they're going to be people who already know Fedora, or
are already interested in us in general, and then are looking to have
that in a cloud environment.

For that, we need the Cloud Base to have *internal* visibility and
connections, but it doesn't need to confuse the marketing message.
Specifically, I'd like it to go in the "Other Downloads" section of
<https://getfedora.org/en/cloud/download/>, introduced like this:


  "Looking for a plain, non-Atomic image optimized for cloud
  environments? Download Fedora Cloud Base Image: [...]"
