Kevin Fenzi is organizing a project where Ansible can be used to  
convert a Fedora system locally to various roles using local Ansible  
playbooks.

The thought is there would be a tool that would download them from  
some git repositories, something very much like a  
'system-config-roles', replacing the previous concept of "Fedora  
Spins"  
with something that could easily apply to a running Fedora desktop as well.

(This might either use the playbooks API or just execute  
ansible-playbook foo.yml -c local)

Those interested in working on this can read about his initial thoughts here:

and should join the list here:

If you use Fedora, this would be a great way to contribute to the distro.
