"As we finalize our installation setup for CoreOS this next week (after plowing through Ubuntu, Debian and CentOS)"

Pity he doesn't elaborate on that. I understand that CoreOS is his choice, but it would be nice to know why the other distros aren't.

I think the author is saying they already finished setup fur the other three.

Our guys tried CentOS for awhile with OpenStack, but gave up because so much of it is clearly maintained with Ubuntu in mind. So they switched to Ubuntu and things have been mostly smooth sailing since then.

Same for us. So much of the documentation is really only for Ubuntu, and you quickly run into gotchas where you have to decide.

Do I want to work out and fix all the issues to get this distro working, or do I want it to work and move on to the other gotchas?
