This is awesome, let me know if you have something that you'd like
help testing. I have a spare TrimSlice that's currently sitting idle
and would love to see some Atomic action on it. :)

How do we do that? Is there an official avenue to pursue working with
cloud vendors? What was the process to get the Fedora Cloud image into
IaaS providers with fedimg? (I assume some sort of relationship has to

Send the scaleway people an email, letting them know you are asking officially on behalf of Fedora cloud.
In my personal dealings, they have been very nice to work with.
I don't know how it came about, but I know that centos has 4 machines dedicated to them. I'm not saying that will happen, just saying it.
