Hello,

The version of cloud-init packaged in CentOS 7 Extras is rather old (0.7.5, which was released in 2014). It is missing some functionality that we would like to use, as well as important bug fixes.
Before I tackle rebuilding the package myself, I would like to know if there is a plan to update extras to a newer cloud-init version, or if has anyone has already updated cloud-init and would be happy to share the spec?

Many thanks,
