This is a meeting agenda item. Make sure all of the cloud-related changes
are in good shape:
* have owner
* are on track
* are updated with relevant info
And when not, find a way to fix them :)

#62: notification of pending security updates in motd
------------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: mattdm | Owner:
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Fedora 21 (Alpha)
Component: Cloud Base Image | Keywords:
------------------------------+-------------------------------
I think it would be nice if the /etc/motd (or some other mechanism) would
inform users of pending security updates on login.
And, a welcome side-effect is that having cloud images check with the
update server network periodically gives us a better measure of whether
we're actually being used. Right now, cloud images are probably being
drastically undercounted, as many aren't updated ever.

#55: define shell command API available in Fedora Cloud Base Image
------------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: mattdm | Owner:
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Fedora 21 (Alpha)
Component: Cloud Base Image | Keywords:
------------------------------+-------------------------------
This is a list of shell commands (or at least the packages which contain
them) which are expected to work in a cloud metadata userscript at initial
Fedora Cloud Base Image launch. We should maintain this list and note
changes in the release notes, have a deprecation procedure, and so on.
The initial goal for Fedora Cloud Base Image is to balance size and
usefulness -- python and yum/dnf will be in the list, for example. For a
more "edgy" image, see Fedora Atomic.

#54: define shell command API available in Fedora Atomic

This is a list of shell commands (or at least the packages which contain
them) which are expected to work in a cloud metadata userscript at initial
Fedora Atomic launch. We should maintain this list and note changes in the
release notes, have a deprecation procedure, and so on.
The initial goal for Fedora Atomic is to be as small as reasonably
possible, including removing Python (and, not including python and yum/dnf
on the list).

#48: remove rsyslog from default image, configure journald options appropriately
------------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: mattdm | Owner:
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Fedora 21 (Alpha)
Component: Cloud Base Image | Keywords:
------------------------------+-------------------------------
Right now, we have two logging systems installed by default in the Fedora
Cloud image. While obviously rsyslog needs to continue to be an option, I
don't think we should be shipping it by default. (After dhclient, it's the
second-largest memory consumer, for one thing.) This requires some rework
to the cloud-init package -- that's what's pulling it in now.
We should also consider the journal options we want by default; probably
settings optimized for less memory consumption are better.

#35: External need: Automatic Image Upload
--------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: mattdm | Owner:
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Fedora 21 (Alpha)
Component: --- | Keywords:
--------------------+-------------------------------
'''Summary:''' Whenever an image is built, it is automatically uploaded to
our cloud provider targets (EC2, etc.) and to the fedora ftp site (and
possibly mirrors if we can convince mirror admins to drink from that
firehose)
'''Importance:''' vital (current process where rel eng does it by hand
will not scale)
'''Timeframe:''' whenever we can get it / this adds value whenever it
happens
'''Fedora Sub-Project/SIG:''' Release Engineering, possibly Infrastructure
for resources
'''Cloud SIG owner:''' TBD (note summer intern may help with that, if it
is not too late)
Possibly we file this as a change. Also see previous intern's initial
work: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/cloud-image-service.git/
We need someone to help drive this, and to assist rel-eng and
infrastructure in whatever they need.

#56: tracking ticket for conversations around shipping ostree images
-------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: mattdm | Owner:
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: blocker | Milestone: Fedora 21
Component: Collaboration & Communication | (Branch)
| Keywords:
-------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
We've decided to base the Fedora Docker host image on Project Atomic, and
therefore rpm-ostree. This means several big conversations, including with
QA, Rel Eng, and the mirror network. It will mean some new development and
possibly extra resources. But first we need to figure out the questions to
ask, and then we need to ask them, and then we need to find answers, or
provide them where they don't already exist.

#13: Port Cloud Image Kickstart to anaconda/imagefactory
------------------------------+-----------------------
Reporter: mattdm | Owner:
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 21
Component: Cloud Base Image | Keywords:
------------------------------+-----------------------
Rel-Eng is updating to Koji 1.9, which will allow us to use Anaconda and
ImageFactory for image creation instead of appliance-creator.
* What: The current kickstart file is full of kludges for appliance-
creator. Port to anaconda/imagefactory kludges
* Where: same as ongoing maintenance of kickstart
* Why: appliance-creator is being retired; anaconda-based installs are the
way forward
* When: As soon as this is available in Koji. Need a new ImageFactory
release, then patches into Koji for support, then a new Koji release, then
Koji needs to be updated in Fedora production
* Who: Ian McLeod is working on ImageFactory; Jay Greguske on the Koji
patches, Mike McLean is Koji maintainer, Dennis Gilmore in release
engineering will do the Koji update. Need to work with them to get this in
place, and then someone from cloud wg needs to do the updating.
