==== Description: ====
SlapOS is virtual networked operating system using GNU components.

It has a "kernel" - slapos.slapgrid component written in python which reuses
zc.buildout to install and configure software.

There is specific slapos.slap library which is able to query slap ready
machine using slap -- Simple Language for Accounting and Provisioning -- and
fetch information for "kernel" -- what shall be done on each machine.

SlapOS is mainly targeted to host libre software with free licenses (like
GNU, ZPL). It is reusing GNU components heavily -- like gcc, GNU linker,
autoconf.

Its reference server is written in python, using ERP5 technology. It is
published on GPLv2 license and reuses libre software.
