</div>Hi Brendan,<br>
<br>
Please don't top-post:<br>
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.<br>
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?<br>
A: Top-posting.<br>
Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?<br>

I agree to add your DataSourceGCE.py into the Debian cloud-init package,<br>
however, you might know that there's a debconf system to configure which<br>
data source to activate. Currently, we can select:<br>
<br>
NoCloud, AltCloud, CloudStack, ConfigDrive, Ec2, MAAS, OVF, None<br>
<br>
Which is it going to be for Google Cloud? Will it work to just put that<br>
in the /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg file?<br>
<br>
Please let me know so I can work it out in the cloud-init package.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
