+1 in general terms.  It's strange to me that there are so many 
OpenStack deployment systems that each do each piece of the puzzle in 
their own way (Fuel, Foreman, MAAS/Juju etc.) - and which also means 
that I need substantial separate learning in order to use all these 
systems.  It would be great to see some consolidation.
