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:

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!
