I put together some thoughts on a project for converting the
Solaris Security Toolkit (SST) into a Cfengine implementation. I
hope to learn how to create cfengine configurations that will
plugin to existing cfengine configuration files or work
standalone. I chose this existing body of work so we would not
have to decide "what" the best practice is. The Solaris Security
Toolkit project in Cfengine will benefit from a Cfengine since it
can continue to check to make sure the SST policy is converged.
After that I hope to have the convention and architecture defined
to communicating other best practices via Cfengine. This way the
community can start sharing their configs more.

For now I am reading the SST code. I admit I haven't done a lot
of research to see what others have done to attempt this. I know
there are a few Cfengine configuration projects out there. I
intend to review and use them were applicable.
All input is appreciated. I will need people to write and test
the code once I have written the architecture.
