We've got help from Google, Microsoft and ProfitBricks to develop
their providers, which is great. The Microsoft guys were very kind and
helped a lot bootstrapping the ARM provider. If can share the contact
we have if you could be interested in getting in touch.

Thanks for the OpenStack env offering! Has it been manually
provisioned, or it is a devstack / something that is fully automated?
