Hey, Yes, debian packages are very nice, thank you zigo for all you did! Moreover, you can also take a look at what canonical did with ubuntu cloud archives. Packages are working very well and openstack documentation is explaining quite easily how to deploy them. I dont know, but maybe it's based on what you did for debian zigo?

OpenStack deployment questions:
If you were starting a new deployment of OpenStack today what OS would you use, and what tools would you use for deployment? We were thinking CentOS with Kayobe, but then CentOS changed their support plans, and I am hesitant to start a new project with CentOS. We do have access to RHEL licensing so that might be an option. We have also looked at OpenStack-Ansible for deployment. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance. -Tom
Hi Thomas,
Did you consider using Debian and OCI [1] ? I've just deployed my 8th cluster in production with it, this time using floating IP for routed networks [2]. I'm of course biased in my answer because I'm the package maintainer and the main author of OCI, but he... please give it a try! One of the main point is that what happened with CentOS has no chance to happen in Debian (no vendor lock-in).
Cheers,
