I and jbrooks have both had success generating a working tree using the JSON in the "downstream" branch of the SIG repo. I've done this using only the Base, updates, extras and the "cah" rebuild repo that Johnny produced. I'll PR these changes shortly. The only snag I'm encountering has to do with the version of anaconda pulled into the installer. The 7.1.1 Atomic install media is based on an Anaconda version that is older than the RHEL 7.1 release Anaconda. Internally we generated installer media by pointing lorax at a repo that intentionally masked out the 7.1 anaconda packages while preserving the remainder of the 7.1 updates. I've duplicated this locally using reposync to produce an appropriate repo for lorax. It seems to work. However, this temporary intermediate lorax repo step doesn't fit very cleanly into the script workflow in the SIG repo, nor is it something that needs to be done on an ongoing basis. With this in mind, I wanted to see if perhaps I could work with someone from the core team to spin the 7.1.1 install media by hand and then focus on a merged/automated approach going forward.
