Hi Sam!

Super excited to see this and I'd be interested in talking about
organization of it sometime if you are interested.

I did some work with some previous tools to enable this sort of thing and
one of the things that was hard then - and a lot easier in ansible, is the
ability to make tests and conditionals easy.  Such as, skip these steps if
there's no database, etc.

Anyway, this is good stuff!
