Hi Andrew, exactly, you got the idea.
For instance, it could result to create a AMI on Amazon EC2, etc. The purpose is exactly what you described: - be able to install a Karaf instance on a cloud provider - control the "cloud Karaf instance" (start, stop, ...) - expose this instance as a compute service It's something I planned in Karaf Cellar, but I think it makes more sense to have in jclouds (and Cellar will leverage jClouds).
