Two different scenarios are checked, for each start and destroy:

 * two different transactions, so activity tag is used
 * same transaction, so serialize blocking call is called

Whenever software instance is begin started or destroyed new packing list have
to be created. But in both cases it is not desirable to have more then one
active packing list related to current step of state. So dissallow it by
passing tag and checking for its existence. Even more -- serialize in order to
lock operation on one Software Instance in transaction.

Prepend with / in case of not matching in subdirectories.
Append with / in case of directories.

Use socket/time timeouts in small loops to react on common usage cases.
Be sure that supervisord is functional enough in order to avoid running other
steps in case of deconfigured svc backend.

Currently slap library was coded with optimistic assumption, that remote system
are not failing. But in order not to block library caller it is required to
setup timeout on socket operations, with default different than infinity.

It is nice to have python with all slapos.core modules.

While requesting Software Instance allow to edit instance XML, leave current
default in user interface.

While navigating to Software Instance make text_content editable and allow to
edit the form.

Include a specific script for additional configuration specific to the vifib project. Each additional configuration should be reviewed and recoded as Configurator Item on ERP5Configurator.

It is important to have in mind in this case that not always such configuration s should be converted in a generic setup.

Required notification is validated by Business Template itself.

There is no need to provide post install steps in comments for workflows.

Also as Vifib does not accept optional parameters, transmit all everytime.

It is important during the request to being able to specify SLA, as current,
fully random selection does not allow fine grained control of partition
selection.

java implementation depends on rest implementation and it is not stable enough
to be shown on master branch.

As Hosting Subscription is common document for all Software Instances used in
request process, use it to find common parameters of all deliveries.

SoftwareInstance_createSalePackingList shall be able to work for requested
software instances.
