Meeting summary
---------------
* roll call  (sgallagh, 15:59:34)

* Adam Williamson Confirmation  (sgallagh, 16:05:36)
  * AGREED: Adam Williamson is confirmed as a voting member of the

  * The vision for role installation so far is that users can select
    roles to add to a system, and would be provided with a (wordpress
    first-run like) wizard for some initial information and they'll be
    given a working server using sane defaults.  (mizmo, 16:48:28)
  * Optionally, the user should also be able to deploy the role in a
    mass deployment without having to interact with the wizard. How to
    achieve this is an implementation detail (answer file possible)
    (mizmo, 16:49:02)
  * The configuration should be able to be modified post-install, but
    not necessarily via GUI right away (hard to commit to this)  (mizmo,
    16:49:42)
  * One major concern is manpower / ability to maintain framework /
    configs for this role installation vision  (mizmo, 16:50:04)
  * We very much prefer to find pre-existing projects / technology to
    make role installation possible, which should help alleviate
    concerns about manpower  (mizmo, 16:52:18)
  * We will need maintainers for the roles, which is much less load than
    rolling our own  (mizmo, 16:53:02)
  * Another part of role vision: roles as maintainable objects in a repo
    managed with Fedora maintainer standards, integrated & coherent for
    things like email server, groupware, etc.  (mizmo, 16:55:47)
