Curious on this one actually, do you see a need for continued
baremetal support? Today we support both baremetal and containers.
Perhaps "support" is a strong word. We support both in terms of
installation but only containers now have fully supported upgrades.

The interfaces we have today still support baremetal and containers
but there were some suggestions about getting rid of baremetal support
and only having containers. If we were to remove baremetal support
though, Could we keep the Packstack case intact by just using
containers instead?
