What key bits do you think are missing from Kubernetes? I'm sorry you seem to have had a bad experience with GCE, but please know that Kubernetes runs on several other clouds, too, with no crippleware or anything. It is 100% open. |

Yes, sometimes development/testing for new kubernetes features 'feels' like it's focussed-first on GCE functionality (before other platforms) and earlier on, it had some hooks that weren't great (like GCE-only external load balancers and storage). But hey, it's not even v1.0 yet - and all those things are either fixed or being worked on already.
And as a non-GCE user, you aren't a second-class citizen. It works everywhere.
We've deployed successfully in AWS, vagrant and bare-metal (in the garage), so far. All with 'one-command' automated deployment and re-use of our pod & service specs throughout.
Roadmap/Architecture-wise, it would be good to see a more 'pluggable' approach for 3rd party integration (more like an Open Stack model), but again, we're still pre-v1.0...
Also, I think the google-folk here are being very 'reasonable' in their replies. Your comment was mis-directed & ill-informed. Go do some reading or watch Kelsey Hightower's presentation from a couple of months ago:
