I'd agree that it might not be optimal to have some of the python packages
in this
layer, since they are more about access libraries, communications wrappers
and
security.

The problem with targeting oe-core is that we really need more than just
meta-virt
as a user to make them a reasonable candidate for merging. We'd need Richard
or Saul to comment on the possibility of merging them to oe-core.

That being said, if it isn't oe-core, the other options seem like the
meta-networking
layer, or some of the security layers. The risk with that approach is that
we take
what is a currently simple layer dependency list and make it more
complicated.

I can't say that I like adding complexity, but if we can't get them into
oe-core, then
it makes sense, to try and get them into a common layer that holds similar
functionality.

The problem is the timeframe ... if we try and immediately place these in
the right
layer(s), then making them available at all will take some time. So from
that point
of view, we can drop them in meta-virt and start the conversation about
where they
should be in the longer term.

Comments ? I can't say that any of the options really stand out for me :)

Cheers,

Bruce
