Hello,
Upstream Koji has code to build LiveCDs and appliances (read: disk) images, and I was wondering whether there is any interest from this group to leverage it?

A small set of users could be granted privileges to build LiveCDs and appliances in Koji. This way you'd have a central place to build images consistently in a more "official" capacity (I hope that didn't come off as condescending), complete with a record of what was installed into the image. The Koji commands in a recent client look like this:
koji spin-livecd [options] target arch kickstart-file koji spin-appliance [options] target arch kickstart-file
You basically feed it a kickstart file, and it will produce an .iso or disk image. (.raw, .qcow, etc) If this sparks an interest from you folks I can put together a more complete proposal in a wiki somewhere and be more formal about it. I just wanted to check whether there was interest at all, or if everyone is happy with the current process.
Thanks, - Jay

I'd certainly like to see some testing of this in our koji environment.
