Hi Stephen,

i guess i am late :-) so maybe caused by that, while reading through
the document there are some basic questions in my mind, so sorry that
i start with some clearification question:

(you EQUAL all contributors so far)

When you speak about "Server Roles" you mean the service which is
provided by the server? Like DNS, so you mean that we need an
easy/remote/api way of installing a service on an server? Like you
could do it with puppet or spacewalk or maybe WebYAST in SUSE?

Were is the "base"? I mean the basic server, the naked installation
like a minimal server. For me, as an administrator i like really tiny
iso`s which provide a basic installation so that i can ran into the
loud and noisy server room an install the system within some seconds
and do the rest via ssh (or something else).

Than (currently last), i am missing "security". Now a days i guess
security plays a big role. So maybe we should tell a bit about
security features we need in this set. Like pre configured firewalls,
maybe installation sets which open there port on firewall side. Or
maybe an preferrred backup solution, easy to install maybe api
triggered like we got it in zabbix to bound client and server.

So far & Cheers

Jörg
