This is awesome, let me know if you have something that you'd like help testing. I have a spare TrimSlice that's currently sitting idle and would love to see some Atomic action on it. :) > What will it take to fix the packaging and get people on board for > supporting the greater world? could it be something we work with > someone like https://www.scaleway.com/ who have arm based cloud > servers today to> support? How do we do that? Is there an official avenue to pursue working with cloud vendors? What was the process to get the Fedora Cloud image into IaaS providers with fedimg? (I assume some sort of relationship has to be established between Fedora as a project and the cloud provider) -AdamM
Send the scaleway people an email, letting them know you are asking officially on behalf of Fedora cloud. In my personal dealings, they have been very nice to work with. I don't know how it came about, but I know that centos has 4 machines dedicated to them. I'm not saying that will happen, just saying it.
It looks like we already have Fedora on Scaleway?
There is a fedora remix, it does not have our kernel.
