Re: [Fab-user] Blog post on deploying applications with Fabric

[Christian Vest Hansen]

Hi. It's a nice article and I enjoyed reading it.

A couple of things had me mulling...

You're writing `config.fab_hosts = ['...']` instead of `set(fab_hosts
= ['...'])` but the `config` object isn't in Fabric 0.0.9.

Another strange thing is that you explicitly set the `fab_host`
variable, apparently because it doesn't quite work. I'm pretty sure it
does work in 0.0.9 as-released.

So I'm guessing that your examples are based on some more recent
in-development version of fabric - that would certainly explain the
`config` object. And then `fab_host` not working properly would be a
regression.

Lastly, I use `local("echo something")` in my examples/samples a lot,
but those are really just contrived examples... Really, the only
reason you would do that instead of just `print("ing")` is to get
`$(variable)` expantion.
