Isn't this a step backwards? I perceive Ansible as yet another variation of
ssh-in-a-for-loop... And I was hoping better system manageability would be
among the Fedora Server goals too. To me that implies new, improved, more
consistent management APIs.
The great things about management API's is that as soon you make them,
no one will ever use them (even the people who wrote them as they
usually want to write something to fix all the problems they had with
the first set.)
What is the "better system manageability" that you have in mind?
