Open Stack

Hey!

As promised at the summit the latest changes to StackTach are up on github. This is a major change from the original StackTach I introduced earlier this year (and left to wither). Also, I'm including Stacky, which is a new command line tool for StackTach. 

Here's a video that explains what it's all about, how to install and use it.

The repos:
https://github.com/rackspace/stacktach
https://github.com/rackspace/stacky

What we need:
+ packaging
+ docs

Where we're going:
+ worker and db improvement ... everything breaks at scale and stacktach is no exception.
+ Key Performance Indicators (kpi's). Useful for SLA's and other shirt stuff. There is some support in there now (via stacky), but it's busted and inefficient. I'm going to be getting this working again immediately. 
+ Integration with ceilometer. We're duplicating effort here, and are planning to fix that.

Please: install, experiment, report bugs, submit pull requests.

Look forward to your feedback!
