### 3 ways to skin this cat

1. Rabi's ptg talk
2. use the heat client to parse tht, params into the fully formed ansible roles and playbooks
3. Work with ansible to join OASIS, and write the libraries required to become TOSCA compliant
4. Change the format of source of truth, replace tht.
5. parsing params is easy
6. replacing the yaql is not as easy

5. Get rid of the yaql querries in tht

6. need a parsers.. ( read tht, and dump into a human/machine readable format )
7. need to create a new playbook and role for the cases where heat is doing some provisioning of networks and starting servers

STEPS ( proposal ):

HEAT - is stateful
* for scale situations, heat for example knows what servers are up and down
