TODO list and plans
===================
Playbook TODO:
* error codes and failure summaries
* create modules that return 'changed' attributes
* fail nodes on errors, i.e. remove from host list, rather than continuing to pound them
* further improve output
* more conditional capability
* very good logging
General:
* logging
* async options
* modules for users, groups, and files, using puppet style ensure mechanics
* very simple option constructing/parsing for modules
* templating module (how might this work syntax wise?) with facter/ohai awareness
* probably could lay down a values.json file
* use copy capabilities to move files to tmp, run python templating
* maybe support templating engine of choice
* think about how to build idempotency guards around command module?
* think about how to feed extra JSON data onto system
Bonus utilities:
* ansible-inventory - gathering fact/hw info, storing in git, adding RSS
* ansible-slurp - recursively rsync file trees for each host
* maybe it's own fact engine, not required, that also feeds from facter
Not so interested really, but maybe:
* list available modules from command line
* add/remove/list hosts from the command line
* filter exclusion (run this only if fact is true/false)
-- should be doable with playbooks (i.e. not neccessary)
