Right now, we have a devstack plugin [1] to install container engine (i.e. docker, cri-o). The plugin is currently used by Zun and Kuryr and under the governance of QA team.

I am working on a patch [2] to enable k8s installation via devstack. Zun needs this feature to setup the CI for the virtual kubelet provider, and I heard Kuryr also interest to leverage it.

The original idea is to incorporate k8s installation into devstack-plugin-container, so that we can avoid the overhead to bootstrap and maintain a separated plugin. However, the feedback I received so far gave preference to a separated plugin for k8s, so I sent out this email to collect more opinions.

Do you prefer a dedicated devstack plugin for k8s, or is fine to reuse the existing container plugin for this purpose?
