I've written a slightly different angle on this in my article 'How to build 100 web servers in a day': http://www.agilesysadmin.net/imaging-or-configuration-management which, I hasten to add, is CM-tool-neutral :) Very well said and all agreed.

Well thought out, to me it sounds like a co-op for internet sharing. I was just wondering today about how complex "Configuration Management" must be to get off the ground. Can co-ops get business plans from ISP to redistributed to neighbor members, thereby becoming a micro-SP? That last mile of internet service is costly, and all of the competing Wifi signal create interference noise and nucance. How hasn't had to reset their ISP modems and AP? But having a process in place for sharing the cost of web access, equipment and local know how can be a great blow to ISPs. Given clientele can be found, providing the tools and services people want can be provided at a basic level, and thereafter additional billing for time. Oh thank heaven for OSS. Thanks for sharing!
