So, continuing from FudCON's hackfest ideas, I think these are the biggies in terms of "func core" kind of stuff to get done. Thoughts? I've added the missing ones to the ideas page. There are a lot of other expansion/module ideas, but this is probably the (larger) stuff that is perhaps missing. However some of it is pretty much optional too.

* minion-to-minion + ACLs (and of course docs on how to do this) .... a really neat feature

* multiple-overlords/cert-sharing ... seemed to be requested a lot at talk

* overlord-delegation (for network reasons, but also maybe efficiency.... there's a government app that basically did a tree like fan-out for this).

* figuring out how to loosen up the permissions of caller (making sure things are accessible by TurboGears if it opens up a Client() object). Currently it just needs the /etc/pki/func and /var/lib/func stuff. This is probably not too much of a problem but worth talking about.

I do not think we should do it TWICE one for webui and one for client.
It should be done in a way that the ui and client can easily make use
of it.

* Groups? We had talked about doing this in the WebUI and CLI seperately but we could perhaps actually make it part of the Func client API seperately and save a local DB so that could be shared? Thoughts?

By DB, I mean of course something like bsddb or even a config file, not an actual DB :)

Hrm. Is the config enough? How small are these groups? If we go with
a DB, anything that SQLAlchemy can use would be fine with me. That way
when func gets big and needs a REAL DB it would be easier to switch
and not have to gut a lot of code.

* .... whatever else I'm forgetting

Ideas page being kept updated here: https://fedorahosted.org/func/wiki/IdeasForFunc .. I've removed some of the things we've gotten done, if you finish something up, feel free to remove it.

Wrt to "more support for buildbot / mock / make Func a killer build tool"
Um seriously?  Don't we already have enough build tools :)
