I see PaaS as an application that runs on IaaS - if we're splitting into
"Cloud infrastructure" and "Cloud instances/applications" would it be
more appropriate in the cloud applications SIG?

I would also see the likes of XLCloud (elastic cloud based HPC) fitting
in that category.

What do you think?

I don't think that's a fair claim to PaaS because PaaS can exist completely

independently of IaaS but can at points have integration. I run OpenShift

Origin at home on bare metal on spare hardware that I don't care to incur
the overhead of virt or IaaS. Because of this I don't like to classify PaaS

as an IaaS application.
