Added a basic locking system to avoid multiple "sync" operations happening at the same time -- not a huge risk -- but it ought to be guarded against.

 cobbler TODO list
-  -  GTK (or Web) UI for Cobbler ?
-  -  Port over to xeninst python module once available for something other than Rawhide
-  -  Wake on lan integration for PXE
-  -  Integration with stonnith or other up/down devices?
-  -  Locking
+
+need to fix:
+  -  global locking -- one cobbler command at a time
   -  For "enchant", try to verify that syslinux and mkinitrd are installed on the remote.    
-  -  "make test" shouldn't overwrite files in /var/lib/cobbler/ 
   -  "enchant" would be better if it didn't need to know the password
   -  "enchant" has issues with ssh key changes locking it out
   -  "enchant" should be written in a more distro-agnostic way.
-  -  "add" should be distinguished from "edit" so as to not overwrite
+  -  "cobbler add" should be distinguished from "edit" so as to not overwrite
+  -  "make test" shouldn't overwrite files in /var/lib/cobbler/ 
      new configs.
+
+really nice to have:
+  -  GTK (or Web) UI for Cobbler ?
+
+making things more standardized/flexible:
+  -  Port over to xeninst python module once available for something other than Rawhide
+  -  abstract out the --pxe-arch system, possibly pseudonym it to arch,
+     and make the multiple-bootloader system more plugin oriented to allow
+     for alternative bootloaders (not neccessarily kickstart related)
+     to be added
+  -  look into what it would take to make kickstart *more optional* 
+
+bells and whistles:
+  -  Wake on lan integration for PXE
+  -  Integration with stonnith or other up/down devices?
    
-general cleanup:
+internal code cleanup:
   -  an argument parsing overhaul is probably due
   -  remove the cobbler_msg logic since i18n isn't likely
