Thanks for all the projects listed, i'm taking a look and working on augeas
for a project i have for ubuntu, so you may will see it land in intrepid, i
also find very interesting Func, so i'm taking notes and will take a further
look later on, if you want to work on some of this please feel free to
contact me, i'm trying to work on a centralized managment console for
servers. Thanks again!
