I still like this line of thinking, but "Coco-slug" makes me think of an infected coconut with slugs coming out of it. Katello also has a -slug component or two. We'd talked about "CroCoBits" which sounds a little more cereal-y and a little less infested. Plus the images are "bits". When I ran cross-country in a former life, it was "XC". We could borrow that here. xci = Cross-Cloud Images? > * Vaporware! (we should have used this from the beginning..) This needs to be used somewhere. Also: "Publicist" -- used to manage one's image.
