Doesn't this assume that people want to build all of the non-ASF
friendly pieces? What if I just want to build the default CloudStack
build + F5 support. Some of the dependencies for non-ASF  friendly
pieces require hardware purchases (NetApp) or support contracts
(NetScaler). I don't think there can be only two choices, even if that
is how we might build it.
