Yeah, I like the #cloudstackworks ….with all your apps etc……but if we are 
insinuating that cloudstack works and that other solutions don't, I think it's 
a slippery slope.

IMHO the other solutions out there also work very well. I have used opennebula 
first hand, and it was very slick + I doubt that openstack does not work or 
does not scale (knowing the scale of cern deployment).
