This is interesting. Was this something you negociated on your own or through Linux Foundation? It brings up two points: 1) OPNFV projects looking to obtain their own hardware resources instead of working within the community (OPNFV Infra WG for example) 2) If you are using packet.net on your own instead of through Linux Foundation, I think we could potentially loose the ability to gain economies of scale in pricing or features requests as I'm sure there are other projects within Linux Foundation that could leverage using packet.net. > My hope is that I can use LaaS as a way to automate the CI for my > project as a first step.

Thanks for you input. Regards, -- Jack Morgan
