I just gave this a quick build and read and I think it's great.

I have a bunch of notes on building Windows images that I need to collect
and this book would be a great place to add them.

Do you think this book would be the appropriate place to talk about how
image downloading and caching to the compute nodes is handled? Another
thing on my to-do list is to review the caching/cleanup system and see how
exactly the Grizzly implementation works differently than Folsom (and then
document it).

Also, what about Glance-specific topics such as replicating images to other
Glance servers, configuring Glance for S3, configuring Glance for rabbit
notifications, etc.

Or should this book be strictly for building images?
