Well, AFAIK it is not only that it's a complex bunch of software to package but that it's very Redhat-centric so to be of use on a Debian environment there's a lot of upstream work involved too. At the very least: * Install templating (something instead of Kickstart, maybe FAI and/or d-i support) * Package management/mirroring (something instead of Yum, maybe aptitude support and/or apt-cacher-ng) * In order not to crash against a wall, will these efforts integrate nicely with Spacewalk? All in all, I'm quite interested on these issues (automated deployment/configuration/management) and I feel Debian is a bit seing the tail lights og the redhat-ish world, so I may find time to help a bit.
