Thanks. I think we might rewrite it using the python api once that is pushed, and then push it upstream. (You can see the api right now in the latest quantal package source - bzr branch ubuntu:lxc) The script as it stood didn't seem upstreamable. Both because the code is scary, and because its command line interface and its output needs to be more focused. So far it mostly only addresses the needs of the one person who wrote the original version. Input from you about how you want to use it will help address that. -serge ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
