** Summary changed:

- Need joyent-mdata-get packaged
+ [MIR] new package - joyent-mdata-client

** Description changed:

- We need the joyent-mdata-get package for Ubuntu and Debian
+ [Background information]: Joyent is an IaaS vendor offering compute
+ instances and object storage. Joyent is the sponsor of the SmartOS
+ project and uses SmartOS for their compute offering. Each compute
+ instance uses a serial console for a meta-data service. The joyent-
+ mdata-client tools are required to enable two-way communication with the
+ meta-data service.
  
- http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=728749
+ [Availability]: This is a new package for cloud enablement. In order for
+ a package to be included on the official cloud images, it must be in
+ Main, as Universe is disallowed by policy.
+ 
+ [Rationale]:  This package enables two-way communication with the meta-
+ data service on Joyent/SmartOS instances.
+ 
+ [Security]: The source package was introduced early Octoboer 2013.
+ 
+ [Quality assurance]: No obvious issues with the MIR requirements
+ 
+ [UI standard]: Not applicable
+ 
+ [Dependencies]: All dependencies are already in main.
+ 
+ [Standards compliance]: No issues identified
+ 
+ [Maintenance]:  This package will be jointly maintained by the Ubuntu
+ Server EcoSystems team in conjunction with Joyent through a business
+ relationship.
+ 
+ [Source Location]: Currently working on landing this package into
+ Debian. (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=728749)
