Just idly wondering, but what are the minimum kvm requirements for
nova-compute and quantum-gateway?

Currently the juju local provider has just one container factory (used
for creating machines). It is just a simple manner of code to make it
work with both kvm and lxc.  Did you realize that you can use the
local provider configured to use kvm containers?

Now I've not put too much thought into this yet, and we don't have any
time before 14.04, but could be an interesting spike to show something
off at ODS.

We could have some bundle that described an openstack local deployment
where you could go 'juju quickstart local-openstack' and have a
complete openstack deployment on your laptop in a combination of lxc
and kvm containers.

Thoughts?
