[Alessandro Pilotti <apilotti@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi guys,

Nice to meet you and thanks for the introduction Joshua!

My company (Cloudbase Solutions) is responsible for the development of Cloudbase-init (the Windows Cloud-Init equivalent) and we're planning to add support for BSD as well which in turn can be integrated into Cloud-Init (the other way around is not possible due to Apache 2 vs GPL licensing).

For details: http://www.cloudbase.it/cloud-init-for-windows-instances/ and https://github.com/cloudbase/cloudbase-init

We have quite a bit of experience in working on multiple OSs, including Windows, Linux and BSD, so this would be quite a natural next step.  :-)


Thanks,

Alessandro

Subject: FreeBSD + cloud-init

Hey all,

I was just talking to alex (ap@) on IRC and he might be working on hooking cloud-init into *bsd*.

Seeing that we are still running freebsd in various places we might want to help in this work also.

I know we are trying to move away from freebsd in general but it might be useful to combine our knowledge and help out in making this happen.

Thoughts??
