As decided earlier, oVirt next release (3.1) is targeted for Fedora

Since the engine uses JBoss, we have two deployment options:
1. Continue working with ovirt-engine-jbossas package
    PROS: Single rpm. known upgrade method.
    CONS: Maintaining un-natural zip based rpm. No official support.
Can't be pushed into Fedora.

2. Move to JBoss F17 official packages:
    PROS: Fully supported F17 rpms (including bug fixes, security
fixes, etc). "The right thing to do".
    CONS: Upgrade from first release (relaying on old jboss) will be
almost impossible, Some open issues (will it work just as as normal
service? or will we need to code a new one?), Might cause a delay to
Feature Freeze.

Quick thoughts -- this will come up for every release until we decide on
#2.  The con for #2 will always be there until we finally switch over.
I think it's less impact to have a more manual upgrade between release 1
and 2 than between later releases.

As long as we can provide at least a manual upgrade process with well
defined steps so that the early adopters don't have to re-create their
environments, I think we should go with #2.

+1
