> The purpose of this proposal is to facilitate adding custom services to an existing stack.  Ideally this would support adding and upgrading custom services separately from the core services defined in the stack.  In particular we are looking at custom services that need to support several different stacks (different distributions of Ambari).  The release cycle of the custom services may be different from that of the core stack; that is, a custom service may be upgraded at a different rate than the core distribution itself and may be upgraded multiple times within the lifespan of a single release of the core distribution.    
> One possible approach to handling this would be dynamically extending a stack (after install time).  It would be best to extend the stack in packages where a stack extension package can have one or more custom services.
