True.  But cluster.xml is rather different from the one in RHCS/RHGFS.

Well, the shared IPs and stuff won't really do much until Friday... ;)
I hope to commit the cold-failover component to CVS by then.

The config app won't be available for awhile; it was for RHCS and RHGFS;
which have much less "stuff" to deal with than this project.  However, I
hope to expand the preliminary things I've sent to this list so that
people can define resource groups by (gasp) hand editing - at least
until the GUI is built.
