Description Pierre Carrier 2010-11-17 10:30:46 UTC
Problem:
- sos should do one thing but well (fast, reliable): gather data.
- Trying to start the diagnostics before/while inside sosreport prevents us from releasing early and often diagnostics tools.
- Outdated/broken messages are annoying, sometimes prevent the generation of the sosreport (eg. historical bug of locale handling in cluster services status)

Solution:
- All diagnostics features should be completely dropped.
- A new tool, later in the chain, should look at those historical diagnostics features to integrate them.
