Hi,
The current version of Imagefactory [1] running with CentOS build system (CBS) is few versions behind upstream releases of Imagefactory [1] . Imagefactory recently added a new feature to build HyperV variant of Vagrant image and also has capability to build Vagrant box for VMware Fusion. I am confident that bringing these features to CBS will help the community in general.
In case you are not aware about Imagefactory [1] , CBS uses it to do Vagrant box builds for CentOS and other projects e.g. Atomic Developer Bundle (ADB) in Atomic SIG.
I am wondering how we can facilitate a process to bring upstream features of Imagefactory to CBS. One suggestion from Ian was that we should create a cbs-test setup similar to production CBS setup and use it to build confidence around the new features of Imagefactory and then move the feature to production.
If you have better ideas you should speak now :)

Great news, thanks for the update.

We do have a test koji instance in dev-cloud, so we could use it. Is grabbing latest from EPEL/Fedora a recent enough release ?
I'll rebuild Imagefactory in koji tomorrow and start the tests.
We don't have a clear test set for upgrades, so I'll be happy to hear from Ian or other on what should be tested.

Nice. Ian has built the latest release [1] [2] for EPEL and Fedora. They are in epel7-testing now.

Just worth adding that the test koji instance is itself there running in VMs, so not sure if imagefactory can run on something else than bare-metal. IIRC it's spinning temporary VM itself through libvirt to build the image[s], and nested virt isn't available in DevCloud environment
