By "fallback" I assume you basically mean just a generic libcloud module? My personal experience with the "provider agnostic" aspects of libcloud has not been great, and our current usage of it in the GCE modules is about to go away in favor of Google's Python API...
That said, if you're willing to maintain one or more provider-generic libcloud modules that are decently written and can be shown to do useful things with clouds we don't currently support, I'm sure we'd take them into extras. -Matt On Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 6:14:55 AM UTC-7, Samuel Marks wrote: > > Greetings Ansible! - I like your philosophy, although enjoy reinventing > the wheel also ;) as you can see from my [open-source] Fabric-centric DSL. > > However I don't like being one of [the only?] that supports so many > clouds.
