Hey Everyone - 	
	As you know we're working toward integrating Foreman for Katello. Up
until now you've probably been a little bit in the dark as to what
exactly the plans are:

Moving forward, we're going to do the following:
- Integrate Foreman components via API/CLI as well as within the UI
- Add a few menu items up top, Promotion, Lifecycle, and Setup; per org
	- See: https://fedorahosted.org/katello/wiki/Sitemap
- Integrate many of the Foreman concepts within those and existing menus
- Add Server Containers as a new concept to wrap some existing Foreman
concepts
- Work on iterating on and improving Tupane! See either the Server
Containers or Systems documents* for some of the changes but some quick
points(* https://fedorahosted.org/katello/wiki/Foreman%20Integration )
	- Full grid landing, expanding out of first column with possible
expansion from first column
	- Quick actions per row
	- Actions within the top bar of the expanded panel
	- Improved batch actions interaction (including checkboxes)
	- Improved 'drill down' for in-panel

For Foreman integration notes, see:

(Dmitri has kindly volunteered to help me continue to flesh that page
out as we build out the integration. Thanks Dmitri!)

Thoughts? Concerns? Hope this helps clear things up!
