h1. Roadmap meeting

Please add your own wishlist here, we would review these topics during the meeting, Order has no meaning.

h2. Dec 05 2011 : 7pm UTC on #theforeman (Freenode)

h3. Important Issues to review

* Mcollective integration

* Pulp Admin integration

* Parameterized classes support (#832)

* Controlling the BMC through IPMI

** control boot order

** power controls

* Remove dependency of virt in foreman

** make a more generic layer that allows for any 3rd party virtualization tools (ovirt, virt, libvirt, aws, fog, ...)

* ESX support

* Ruby version support

* create external service for 3rd party tools

** wrapper service that acts as the middle man to talk to foreman and 3rd party tools

** Can handle compatibility better 

** Better security

**** Security related issues, that so far have been handled outside Foreman, like restricting who can POST Reports and Facts. Ideally Foreman should handle them. #1169

* [[Password Encryption]] 

* DB data versioning (Templates, parameters, etc - possibility to revert to a previous state) 

* Cloud provisioning and unattended access/security related (#969)

* Audits to Hostgroups/Classes/Parameters/Provisioning should have be displayed on the Dashboard, perhaps with some Visualization?

* host roles that were originally possible with puppet before adding the ENC.  Roles can be assigned to host or hostgroups with a (many-to-many) relationship.

* Full working  unattended installations via proxy 

* Add scheduling #1249

* Discuss about new UI in Foreman (from 0.3 -> 0.4) - Fixed size columns ...

h3. Organizational topics

* Git and Release maintenance

* Packaging

* Puppet-Foreman deployment recipes - Isolate namespace (as in : http://bit.ly/sFabPs) ? Or not ?

* Bug/Feature reviews

h2. Dec 05 2011 : Report :

h3. Mcollective 

# functionality exposed in UI :

* simple action : puppet kicks, services management

* handled by proxy

* optional

h3. Pulp / Katello

* Relation with Foreman should be more precise

* Katello doesn't support non RPM disto

* Maybe we could try a simple repo management

* Functionnality wished :

** Assigning repo to host

** Pull updated

* Mainly UI work

h3. BMC support

* Functionnality wished :

** Power on/off

** Boot order

* Should be handled by proxy using IPMI (freeIPMI ?)

* Look at otherproject : https://github.com/dellcloudedge/barclamp-ipmi

h3. Remove virt dependency

* Can not talk to 'a cloud'

* Dividing system into :

** Physical

** Virtual

***

** Remove dependency on a particular gem and have 3d party integration (libvirt, virt, fog, ec2, ovirt)
