I think it's a great idea. The packages need reconstruction anyway. (See
the thread about the Debian packages).

Great diagram! I have a silly question though, is there any
particular reason why cloud-orchestration was selected over cloud-
management?
That's a good question. The management server is actually two
parts. The
first part is the orchestration engine (cloud-orchestration). The
second part are the auth, acl, and services built on top of
orchestration engine (cloud-api- server). Together that constructs the
management server.
CloudStack today is somewhat deployed as such because there are two
different pools of threads handling each. We're going to make that
more explicit by breaking it into two modules.

Fantastic! Thanks for the clarification, Alex! As a heavy user of
CloudStack, I would like to propose an addition to your packaging model.
I would like to see a cloud-docs package that includes documentation
for command line utilities that are available on the Management
Server. I think it would also be advantageous to include the Admin&
Install guides in HTML format in a cloud-docs package. Do you think
there is any possibility of that happening? It seems some of the most
common questions that come across IRC and the mailing lists have to do
with documentation; it seems the community could greatly benefit from
such a package.

I also think we need packages for client stubs for different languages.
