					Clustvirt (work in progress name) aims to be the agnostic

					used to display both the WebUI and run the REST API used to
					control one to many libvirtd hosts to manage virual machines,
					LXC containers (through libvirtd), gather information about
					each host, and monitor each host.

			@components.ContentP() {
				I recently created a 
				<span>
					@components.ANewTab("http://redd.it/1bct15z", "post")
				</span>
				on reddit announcing that I was building this, and while the majority
				of responses were supportive, even offering features that may enhance
				what I originally set out to do, many responded with
				"Why do we need another one??"
			}
			@components.ContentP() {
				Besides the list above about why this exists, I wanted to clarify
				a few things those individuals did not seeem to get: This is not
				a rebuild of Proxmox, Cloudstack, VMWare, Harvester or any of
				the other "Hyper-converged/Single-solution/turnkey/Operating System"
				offerings out there. This will not take over your base operating system
				on your machine, just act as a cluster manager and interface to access
				the existing libvirtd instances on those machines, nor will it prescribe
				a set of requirements that make it hard to move your own infrastructure
				around.
			}
			@components.ContentP() {
				At the heart of this project is that I hate the enshitifiation of
				Open Source that has been going on, where its just another way to make
				money and control the eco system. RedHat tried to do it by locking
				down their source code, Proxmox does it by making sure anything you
				do on Proxmox is tied to Proxmox (no offense to Proxmox), and even
				Hashicorp, who I loved so dearly, changed from a pure Open Source
				licensing model to one that protects the business over the community
			}
			@components.ContentP() {
				I will not let that happen here.
			}
			@components.ContentP() {
				This project will seek to use the Unix philosophy, of building off
				of existing standards, combining tools, and having one tool do one
				job well. This does not mean there will be one application for each
				aspect of the job, but that this application stack will manage Libvirtd
				well, and have individual and configurable paths to manage each sub-aspect
				of the libvirt stack. This stack will not create a Ceph cluster for you,
				it leaves you to do that. It will not even talk to a ceph cluster.
				It will, however, let you add that cluster via configuration options to
				define it as a storage pool that libvirt can use.
			}
			@components.ContentP() {
				If you want something that will allow you to use a single interface
				to create all sub aspects that can be used by libvirt
				(managing all firewall rules, creating a ceph cluster, etc.),
				use something like Proxmox which includes that builtin
				functionality. This isn't the stack for you.
