[aerogear-dev] Improving customization abilities of OpenShift cartridge

[Matthias Wessendorf]

yes, our cartridge will still function like that

I think what we can do for Karel, is have the realm.json file, for UPS so
he and team can  import it into running keycloak.

Our cartridge will stay as is, at least that's my (current) understanding
