##(see the SpecSpec for an explanation) ''Please check the status of this specification in Launchpad before editing it. If it is Approved, contact the Assignee or another knowledgeable person before making changes.'' * '''Launchpad Entry''': UbuntuSpec:mass-configuration * '''Packages affected''': == Summary == Configuration of a mass number of Ubuntu machines is currently difficult, with no first class tools. This spec will choose such a tool and identify the work that needs to make a clean UI for such a tool. == Rationale == To continue to drive adoption of Ubuntu in larger deployments, first class tools for configuration are required. == Use Cases == Jim runs a medium sized business and he wishes to control all of his computers from a single point. He sets up a single configuration computer and then Mary is part of a rapidly growing company that is adding new employees all the time. She wants to be able to turn a computer on and have it netboot into a complete system. == Scope == == Design == == Implementation == == Outstanding Issues == == BoF agenda and discussion == ---- CategorySpec
