Hi Michael, thanks for all your work. About the second point (host specific information in Ansible roles): I was referring to this: http://www.ansibleworks.com/docs/playbooks.html#roles http://www.ansibleworks.com/docs/playbooks.html#roles -- I was (incorrectly) under the assumption that you could put host file variable overrides (as you would in host_vars) under the vars/ section, but it looks like that's more of a generic, non-host, non-group specific variable directory? I have edited my comment and removed the incorrect section.
