Hi Scott,

The branch cl_on_Azure_0.7.9 was created recently and used to patch on freebsd ports: cloud-init-azure (see the ports code review: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D10566) since the merge request (314895) to head is still under review.

I hope you can give some comments about another merge request: https://code.launchpad.net/~redriver/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/314895 This is the main branch I have been working on for almost 3 months.

Since I did not see the hope to complete that merge request of 314895, I have to create another branch: cl_on_Azure_0.7.9 for FreeBSD cloud-init ports. 

Now, the cloud-init-azure ports is almost ready, but I still hope you can take some time on reviewing https://code.launchpad.net/~redriver/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/314895 

Thanks
Hongjiang Zhang

Hongjiang,
I'm really sorry for being so unresponsive.
I really do not mind you bothering me and appreciate your persistence.

I grabbed [1] and made some changes.  I think that was your latest.
I pushed that to [2].

Please take a look, and integrate my changes.  Then, please propose that branch and write a good commit message that describes all the fixes you've made.

I'll give it another look tomorrow.  We are really close.

Thank you.
