There are a couple of requests in trac that I would like to discuss.
The first is trac#513. The request is to rename the subnet field to netmask. I agree that netmask is the far more well known term for this field, but I'm wondering how deep we want to make this change if we make it at all.
If we were to make an alias on the command line and add some text about it in the web interface, people might get confused when it doesn't come out as netmask and instead comes out as subnet.
Making the change any deeper would have to wait for a major release as this would disrupt the api in any situation where interface data is being edited.
The second one is trac#519. The fact that you can't see the parent of a profile on the command line nor in the web interface. The simple fix is to set the parent field as a public field and let people track things down on their own. The other way is to blend the objects before display and display all the actual data instead of inherit.
Any thoughts on either of these would be much appreciated. - -- Scott Henson Red Hat CIS Operator WVU Alum BSAE/BSME
I'm pretty sure I submitted #513. I feel that the field is misnamed and you should make the change and fix it in the api as well and if that has to wait for a major release that's fine but you know, that's just, like, my opinion, man.

I submitted 519 after Michael confirmed it was a bug. This behaviour changed since pre-2.0 where the parent was shown. Currently the only way I know to see the parent is to open up the /var/lib/cobbler/config/profiles.d/*.json files in an editor.
