Docmentation will in future be here, but there is not much there yet.

flask_cm
--------

THis program contains a beta code that is used to create a meshup for
various clouds. IN this first release we focus on the creation of a
yaml file that contains the information for thes clouds and can be
used to derive rc files.

In future we will have a full GUI available via flask.

PREVIOUS CHANGES
================

* introduced a "cloud:" attribute in yaml so its easier to manage and
extract the clouds without checking the type

* worked on a nasty bug in the refresh method of openstack, and it
now refreshes even after you deleted all vms.

* changed the logic for the credentials and in addition to the clod:
we have also a credentials: under each cloud

* added a new parameter to the get function in cm_config that if set
to expand=True it will replace the $ vars with those defined in the
os.environ, so this is cool as it allows us to use $ vars now also in
the yaml file



* experiments with date picker: http://www.eyecon.ro/bootstrap-datepicker/
