Yeah so Tropos is basically a new kinda IaaS and it has a controller (which
is a Carbon server) which goes in the host machine and an agent (which is
also a Carbon server) which goes inside the LXC itself. We should make a
new commons project or something and have that project take a dependency on
a version of Carbon (even an old version is fine really) from Maven.

Right??
