[arch-general] Introducing Salt
If you are familiar with a project spearheaded by Red Hat called Func, Salt is very similar. On Thursday I released my first release of the Salt remote execution manager, Salt is a tool to allow an admin to execute remote commands on sets of systems over the network in an extremely fast and efficient way. I have a blog post explaining it in better detail here: http://red45.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/salt-0-6-0-released/ Packages are in the AUR! - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47512 Tell me what you think! It is of course open source, Apache licence, and I am open to collaboration! -Thomas S Hatch

Hi Thomas, I have seen a great deal of effort on your part in this project. I congratulate you on your initial release, and best of luck (not that you need it)! Useful link to source: https://github.com/thatch45/salt

Thanks Thomas! In all honesty I have been wanting to do this project for about 2 years, I have studied far too many methods on how to do this right and tried just about every other method and written a number of rpc systems to test which ones worked the best. I hope I have gotten it right! Just as a reference, Thomas has been plowing away at quarters and committed a massive amount of code this week, great work on Thomas Dziedzic's part! All in all I am just excited to see software development in the Arch community! I will persist that the Arch way should attract the best software engineers, because Arch is done right! -Thomas S Hatch
