Hi,
I hope I'm addressing the right list -- if not, please point
me where it's appropriate.
We (Manila developers) plan to start a new side-project that would
be hosted on Stackforge. It's tentatively named "Manila Image Project",
although it would not necessarily be Manila specific.
It's aim is to provide infrastructure for building custom VM images.
Before we even get to the specific licensing questions - can I ask why
you would not either use the existing tool diskimage-builder as it is or
join forces and add features if it does not meet your needs?
I for one would love to join forces with people who are already working
on this stuff. Building a linux distro is not part of the Manila team's
core mission. That being said, one of the goals of the proposed project
is to build an extremely compact image -- closer to cirros than a
typical linux distro. I look forward to learning about diskimage-builder
and finding out if it's at all suitable for our purposes.
