Well, you just mentioned it : imagefactory (and oz) and it's available
in cbs but so far, only the previous cloudinstance-sig was using it to
build the centos 7 vagrant images.
It all stopped because vagrant images for 8/8-stream are built on the
dedicated distro builders, and nobody maintaining/building the centos 7
vagrant images.

There is even one bare-metal x86_64 node that is in the specific channel
for such images builds : https://cbs.centos.org/koji/hostinfo?hostID=9
(see the image, livecd, livemedia channels and corresponding tasks)

So if that's something you want to test, we can enable that for your SIG
and then try to resurrect the image task (worth knowing that since all
cbs environment was reinstalled from centos 7 to 8-stream, no image
build was ever tested, so maybe a good time to do so)
