[Maas-devel] provisioningserver/custom_hardware vs provisioningserver/driver

[Blake Rouse]

It agree that using sub-folders would be a better approach. Anything
under the driver folder, would then be used by maas using the
Registry's.

I would not use "drivers/os" as if you imported that folder like so
"from provisioningserver.drivers import os" it would override the most
commonly used "import os". Since the field in the Node model for
operating systems is osystem, I would use "drivers/osystem".

This would get even more expanded as we move to pure python for power control:

drivers/power
