I would like to thank you for joining us and sharing your use cases and your expertise.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">We've had some time to digest all the great ideas we received yesterday, and this is the conclusion:</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">* Improve the provisioning workflow in Sunstone by allowing the use of merging templates. Sunstone administrators will have the possibility to create base templates (equivalent to instance types) and the user will be able modify them, in a very specific and controlled way during instantiation (select DISK, network, etc..)</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">* Improve EC2 Images compatibility via CloudInit. This is actually something that will be very useful for many OpenNebula users, since it will allow image interoperability with EC2 and other CMPs. I would like to take this opportunity to call upon anyone interested in helping us getting support for OpenNebula in upstream CloudInit. The more, the merrier: <a href="http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/1768" target="_blank">http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/1768</a></div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">* Implement a metadata server to communicate with guests (<a href="http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/2054" target="_blank">http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/2054</a>) and make it also be as interoperable with EC2's metadata server as possible i.e. NAT the 169.254.169.254 address, etc...</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">* General improvement of hooks</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br>
</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">So thanks again for your continuous and valuable input!</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">

<br>
We have prepared a first feature/bug list for OpenNebula 4.2 [2], however we would love to hear your opinions, thoughts and suggestions. Is there any feature missing you would like to see implemented for OpenNebula 4.2? Is there any feature which you find useless? is there any bug you think is missing?<br>
<br>Please remember that the ideal process of the discussion would be for any person interested in discussing a feature request to open first a feature request ticket in the OpenNebula development portal [3]. Before opening it, though, if you haven’t read how we manage the features request, please do so here [4].<br>
<br>See you at the #opennebula channel at <a href="http://freenode.net" target="_blank">freenode.net</a>!<br><br>Cheers,<br>Jaime<br><br>[1] <a href="http://blog.opennebula.org/?p=4536" target="_blank">http://blog.opennebula.org/?p=4536</a><br>
