I had a meeting with calfonso and brenton last week to discuss what they were
doing now. From what I gathered from them they were looking for a potential
alternative solution for deployment and are interested in oVirt in that area.
I talked with them about this and got some good ideas.

I was more referring to within the guest VM. But, in thinking it over, I
think initially we should handle that from puppet recipes rather than from
oVirt.
