I believe Emerging Technologies was a division of Red Hat working on various new stuff, mostly related to virtualisation. I believe it no longer exists as a division in Red Hat, but the name is still around because users still use it. > There brethren are: > Augeas - A configuration editing tool and API Have not really looked into it. > libvirt - The open source virtualization API We already have this. :) > Cobbler - OS provisioning and profile management > FreeIPA - Identity, policy and audit management FreeIPA has an absolutely horrendous dependency stack.
