This is more something that uses VCL instead of something that is part of VCL.
So, I don't see a need for it being included in a release. However, if it
were, Karuna would need to step up as a committer to maintain it, in which
case, she should be contacted.

> Cloud Broker tool that will enable VCL users to specify their requirements
> via policies. For instance, they can specify their security needs, their
> software needs etc. using a web interface. The broker tool will discover the
> image that best matches these policies.
> The users (or broker tool ) can then issue a reservation for that particular
> image. This feature will be very useful for instances where the VCL user is
> not sure which VCL image will best match their needs.
