@mix yeah i was thinking about butt-first: using the butt as a database. i actually realized it wouldn't be that hard to do with feathers.

at the moment i mostly need help grinding some Salt Stack configs until i get the core infrastructure working from a static config. @nichoth i'm just making things up, have played a bit with Salt Stack before.

also to set expectations, i'm playing with this meow because it's some good holiday distraction, but i don't expect to have anything for public consumption until after spending actual work time on it, probably sometime after April when we release Cobuy.
