interesting. this sort of system would also replace the
resize_root stuff we have, at least, giving a common
framework for it all..
might be worth someone looking at? :)
It certainly sounds interesting. I have been looking into scripting
access to the AWS Instance Meta Data Service and I can get a lot done,
but our inability to parse YAML is a problem. I have noticed that while
we do include Lua in our base system, we don't have a YAML or HTTP
library.
