Hi Tomas,

Are there any design docs which could explain how you provision the 
baremetal hosts ?
As far as I can see, it seeems you're relying on TripleO heat templates, 
right ?

Are you then using disk-image-builder ?

Thanks,
-Sylvain

PS : I just looked at the Youtube demo

> "Tuskar PTL candidacy".

> The self-nomination period will end on Monday, 26th August 2013, 23:59
