We feel that openstack is not quiet robust enough to run out side of the data center on bare metal. Thus one of the potential uses of petitecloud as we see it is as "blast wall" for when it does blow up. It also allows people who are studying for their OpenStack certification to have a machine they can blow up over and over again. We fully support native OpenStack on FreeBSD and feel that all efforts in this area should move forward. We are offering the OpenStack community a way of doing experiments without blowing real machines up. Namely once they get what they want virtually they will move it over to a native install that does not include petirecloud.
