+Steven / Nico
+
+Type:
+   - xml/
+   
+   - parameters/
+   - optional_parameters
+      me: too long
+
+User interested it type:
+
+   - which arguments are available
+   - ls /path/to/type (steven)
+
+Steven / proposal:
+
+   - manifest/gencode: .meta
+   - attribute directly in dir
+
+"cdist-help" <type bla>
+
+   - if no direct path
+
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Doc proposal (Nico):
+
+   man cdist-type-<name>
+
+Directory structure:
+   "easy to ls -lR and understand what it does"
+
+   ls -lR $(cdist-type-path "typename")/meta/
+
+   ls -lR $(cdist-path type "typename")/meta/
+   
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+What consumes most type?
+
+   - Writing types, because they are functionality
+   - Define attributes
+      - required/optional
+
+Type documentation
+
+   $type/.meta/required_parameters/path contains
+      "Path in which file is created"
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+Doc of every type:
+
+   - required/optional parameters
+   - description
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+! Validation of type input:
+
+   Not only required/optional parameters:
+
+   - handling of either content/source arguments
+
+   - validate script in type?
+   - seperate validation from manifest may be senseful
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Explorer per type?
+
+   - helpful or evil?
+   - helps to summarise/get information near ressource that needs it
+   - emphasises type specific explorers
+      -> explorer should be reusable by everybody!
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Explorer delivers facts
+
+   - central repo
+   - not being able to override 
+
+   - may be helpful to override facts for debugging (i.e. os=redhat)
+   - one explorer returns one fact
+   - facts via environment variables
+   - proposal steven: UPPER_CASE
+      - __fact_os (Nico)
+
+   - DEFINE path_to_explorer
+   - DEFINE explorer
