Re: [Eis-devel] 1.6 specs

[Bas L. <ba...@ba...>]

Hey Luuk,

thanks for going over the specs! I agree we should proceed with the 
specification of the configuration app.
I think that the most basic version should include:
- Module management: That is installation and upgrading of modules.
- Application deployment: Deployment of applications on the server
- Webservice deployment: Deployment of webservices on the server
- Database/datadir environment management: Manage different environments 
to deploy applications to. These environments contain database, datadir 
and access restriction config.

Since you don't really need a tool to manage the modules (tar and scp 
will do for now) I think we should start with application and webservice 
deployment.
Would you like to add a proposal for these features to the specs 
document? We could use that as a start for further specifcation.
