Crowbar & OpenCrowbar Communities,

*You are invited to try out the Digital Rebar code 
<https://github.com/digitalrebar/doc>.  If you've been away for awhile, 
this is a great time to come back because we've dramatically streamlined 
the install.*

*Background: *


When the v2 code base forked nearly two years ago into OpenCrowbar, we 
anticipated that the community would migrate to the new code base.  It has 
not turned out that way.

SUSE continues to evolve the v1 code base with a focus on OpenStack 
installation and Chef server.

Meanwhile, RackN has lead the OpenCrowbar code base to embrace 
heterogeneous tools, services, containers and container workloads.

This was causing confusion between two very different Crowbar versions.


*What's Changed?*

The RackN team felt that it was time for v2 to establish a new identify for 
container-ready infrastructure and a new project name was appropriate.  

Accordingly, we have moved the master OpenCrowbar/Core repo to 
*DigitalRebar/Core*.

While little of the code has changed beyond the name, we have taken 
advantage of this migration to cleanup and split out the documentation. 
 We've also made dramatic improvements to the install process.  The new 
installer and workloads are now being maintained by RackN.  We've also been 
able to secure the Digital Rebar name on Twitter, FQDN, IRC, Google Groups 
and others.   We are still cleaning things up: starting next week, we will 
not be taking patches on OpenCrowbar.


I believe that Digital Rebar is perfectly positioned to make a real impact 
in container-metal operations.  And we're looking forward to seeing you in 
the "new" project.

Rob
