  [andreserl] Create/Draft Client/Server approach with a powerwaked server daemon: DONE
  [andreserl] Add support to powerwaked (Server) for an approach of adding different Monitors: DONE
  [andreserl] Create ARPMonitor for powerwaked: DONE
  [andreserl] Use powerwake code to generalize registration of client machines: DONE
  [andreserl] Provide API like approach to do operations in the server: DONE
- [andreserl] Add auto-publishing support for PowerNap clients via avahi: TODO
- [andreserl] Add component listener to Powerwaked for auto-registration (Server): TODO
- [andreserl] Provide powerwaked to check status of registered machines in a Client/Server fashion: TODO
- [andreserl] Provide powernapd with a method to listen messages from powerwaked: TODO
- [andreserl] Change polling monitoring system to event based system: TODO
- [andreserl] Look into integration of PowerNap/PowerWaked with NUT: TODO
- [andreserl] Investigate/add additional pm-powersave tweaks from ARM: TODO
- [andreserl] Define sample profiles i.e. For Web Servers, File Servers, Laptops etc: TODO
- [andreserl] Perhaps involve someone on the Desktop Team to improve powernap for Laptops: TODO
- [andreserl] Add pre-start to upstart job to determine whether machine is virtual or physical (facter virtual): TODO
+ [andreserl] Add auto-publishing support for PowerNap clients via avahi: POSTPONED
+ [andreserl] Add component listener to Powerwaked for auto-registration (Server): POSTPONED

  Thoughts:
  
  Add debconf question to set initial configuration values. (absent_seconds, action, logging, etc)
  Add configuration tool that easily enables profiles/different configurations
  Add different warn methods
  
  Previous work items:
  Contribute action scripts to pm-utils: POSTPONED
  Provide logging for new files added: POSTPONED
  Investigate how the ProcessMonitor can tap into Upstart for monitoring instead of looking in the process table: POSTPONED
  Investigate [1] for ProcessMonitor aswell: POSTPONED
  
  == Agenda ==
  
   * Second Stage action when on PowerSave mode.
   * Support port-ranges for network monitors.
   * Change the polling monitoring system to event based system.
   * Client/Server approach to deploy PowerNap datacenter wide.
   * Server ARP monitoring for automatic wakeup.
   * Integration with other projects, such as OpenStack, Landscape etc.
  
  == Session Notes ==
  
   - Messaging
     - Stomp
     - mcollective + rabbitmq
     - Messaging
     - Corosync
  
  == Actions ==
  
  Investigate/add additional pm-powersave tweaks for ARM: TODO (Not needed)
  Define sample profiles i.e. For Web Servers, File Servers, Laptops etc: TODO
  Perhaps involve someone on the Desktop Team to improve powernap for Laptops: TODOj
