FSFVMConfigurationManagement¶

At the beginning the virtual machine was was administrated by the FSF sysadmins (through cfengine and FAI) and and Replicant maintainers (without configuration management).

• It's not using cfengine anymore and the FSF sysadmins do not manage it anymore but they can help in case of issues (See FSFVMRootAccess for more details).
• We took over FAI which is still being used for automatic updates only

• We need to look if using FAI still makes sense and probably to find more robust ways to have automatic updates applied as FAI tends to also remove and/or replaces packages.
• We are into using etckeeper for publishing at least part of the configuration in git.
