- screencast is perfect :) that should help enough for us to hack the rest of the bits. - re: private keys, ah yes, no problem. Thats the "insecure" private/public vagrant key used for simple setups, see https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/tree/master/keys. - regarding the "big data" stuff: the spirit here is to unify and simplify gluster deployment, possibly using your puppet recipes, so that all of us can build new tech on top of it. - just saw your updated docs email. they look beautiful :) thanks james. now i guess we have even less of an excuse to leverage the existing gluster puppet incantations you've been working on !
