Bug#584769: RFS: clustershell



(Please Cc me on replies, I don't follow -mentors@ very closely).

First question: why do we need yet another parallel command execution
tool? Why is it better than pdsh, dsh, dish, fabric, capistrano,
taktuk+kanif, etc? I'm not arguing that it is not better, but we have so
many of those that it would make sense to elaborate a bit.

That's not how Description: works. first line is supposed to be a 1-line
summary. And I don't think that it's a place for providing documentation
(or examples).
