"atomic", Atomic, Atomic Host, Atomic Host model; ostree, rpm-ostree, atomic; and four lists containing the various "atomic" discussions: Fedora Cloud, ostree (gnome), Project Atomic general and Project Atomic devel. Right now I can't actually tell from posts on any of those four lists why they were originally started on those four lists, that's how similar they all seem to me. But I admit I'm in the happy middle transition between "I grok it all" and "atomic, huh?" So my confusion is expected. But getting out of it with words alone is not working. If it's going to be called Fedora n Atomic Workstation. Then by extension we'd have Fedora n Atomic Cloud. And yet: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2015-August/005699.html No, call it Atomic Host? And yet the ISO is Fedora-Cloud_Atomic-x86_64-22.iso I'm also confused about the distinction between deploying a tree to switch trees versus booting a tree implied by the different GRUB menu entries. Or if those are even the same thing. The differences between Cloud and Cloud Atomic, are bigger than the differences between Fedora and OS X when it comes to FHS layout, mount behavior, statelessness (or lack thereof), and software installation and upgrades. (And as there's no "atomicized" variant of Workstation yet, Cloud is what I'm basing my experience on thus far.) And btw I think ostree/rpm-ostree is badass. But that does nothing to assuage confusion. It's something of a WTF, as in, What The Feynman. If we can't get it explained better than it is right now, then we don't really understand it. -- Chris Murphy -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
