------------------------------------------------------------------

I have done some more work on the Saltstack integration.  There are a number of things still do to but I think it is at the stage where it is worth a pull request for review and test.  I have created a pull request for brooklyn-server:

https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-server/pull/4

and added some documentation in 

https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-docs/pull/9

The code at present provides support for Salt in masterless mode only, reading Salt formulas and Pillar data and using them to set up a Brooklyn node.  There are a number of things still to do here, such as:

* if salt-call --local is used it may be better (just in MASTERLESS mode) to pass '-X' to install_salt.sh
* add config for using a proxy via download '-H' flag with install_salt.sh
* add a Salt resolver
* master mode
* testing on a range of platforms (so far tested on Ubuntu in both 'bring your own node' and cloud).
* testing with a wider range of formulas (so far tested with Apache and MySQL formulas)

> SaltStack is a popular configuration management tool.
> SaltStack would rapidly extend its support for managing services in a cloud infrastructure by using SaltStack master/minions and leveraging SaltStack formulas. SaltStack grains provide metrics about hosts and installation and would be a good source of sensors.
