Because I couldn't find an epic issue with a good overview for the standardizatio in the KaaS layer, I created one. Basically, it came up in last week's Team Container call that an overview is missing. Furthermore, I've been going through all issues in the standards and issues repositories and added the Container label where it was (clearly) missing.

It would be nice if we can somehow agree on and add an ETA for the finalization of the v2 KaaS scope.

We do have this one already: SovereignCloudStack/issues#181
But yours is more like a roadmap, so not too bad either!

Thanks for the hint! I linked the other epic and added some missing tasks to the list here. I agree that having this roadmap style issue has value, after all I felt the need to create it, but I didn't intend to duplicate stuff :( Maybe we can focus on this issue here and close the other one – IMHO the standards repo is the right place anyway.
