Greetings, Jimmmy and Google Compute team ! Nice to see Debian being served by more and more providers. Do you think you can summarise how to access the GCE images in a page on the Debian wiki, for instance http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/GoogleComputeEngineImage ? You can see http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/AmazonEC2Image and http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/WindowsAzureImage for examples. I have a question about SSH. I browsed a bit further the documentation in https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/instances#standardssh, where I could read: "username: [Required The username to log in that instance. Typically, this is the username of the local user running gcutil." Will this be the standard on Debian images as well ? Do you think that it is a practice to be recommended for our other images ? We chose "admin" as default account, following Ubuntu's practice to provide a default account, and adding the constraint that it must not be branded, but if there is an even better choice, we should consider it. Another question, for the mid-long term, do you think that it would be possible to use the Debian Installer directly ?
