There was talk about doing something like this, perhaps in conjunction with the OpenNebula project. However, that was quite some time ago and nothing (that I'm aware of) has moved forward with it. One of the downstream projects, CloudSand, is working on making some basic OS templates available (along with some CloudStack-in-a-box templates). http://www.cloudsand.com/content/ Ilya is the one running this project. Perhaps you two could collaborate? I'm sure that creating useful OS templates is something that everyone would find valuable! -chip
