Moslty, ACK, two minor things I think should be changed inline

+Setting up Condor
+-----------------
+
+In the 'next' branch, the Deltacloud Aggregator now uses condor as a
+task system. Condor is used to decide where a new instance is started
+and takes care of actually starting that instance among other tasks.
+At this time support for Deltacloud is provided in a custom build of
+Condor, this is available at:
+
+http://people.redhat.com/clalance/condor-dcloud/
+
+The easiest way to install it is to use the command:
+
+ $ yum localinstall
http://people.redhat.com/clalance/condor-dcloud/condor-7.5.2-3dcloud.fc13...
+
http://people.redhat.com/clalance/condor-dcloud/libdcloudapi-0.2-1.fc13.x...
+
+Note that new versions may become available and you should check the
+site for the latest version.
+
+Once those are installed, you will also want to download:
+
+http://people.redhat.com/clalance/condor-dcloud/condor_config.local
+
+And place this file in /var/lib/condor/condor_config.local. The only
+configuration variable you will have to change is the CONDOR_HOST, which
+should be set to your local host name. If you are concerned about
security,
+the ALLOW_HOSTS variable can also be set to your machines host name.
+
I think here ^ there should be some mention of setting '*' for development
environment, as that is what I had to do to get it to work.
+At this time you should restart Condor:
+
+ $ sudo service condor restart
+
+Note that if you restart Condor, you should also restart the aggregator
+in order to populate Condor with the available backend cloud information.
+
Some line here about 'for more information on building and using condor from
the commandline, see the readme here (
http://people.redhat.com/clalance/condor-dcloud/README) ' would be good, I
think. Eventually, that will hopefully just be included right in the
documentation section, but at least a pointer for now would be a good start.
Tying it all together
