Please forgive this intrusion but looking at the roadmap, func will replace osad in spacewalk 0.7. So there is just two minor versions of spacewalk until osad goes away and I'm guessing that there won't be a release of satellite based on spacewalk 0.5 or 0.6. If this assumption is correct, changes to the spacewalk.conf shouldn't impact on future Satellite releases. Also given the problems with osad and fedora 10 right now is it feasible to just integrate func into spacewalk now? Just looks like a lot of pain to fix a component that is being dropped in the near future.
