G`Day !
Great project.
I am up and running with battleschool on my new Ubuntu Utopic laptop.
In an effort to give back I want to build out and share a repo in the same vane as https://github.com/spencergibb/ansible-osx but for Ubuntu.
One thing I am stuck on is where to extract out any vars from these playbooks so that they are generic ?
example: https://gist.github.com/aussielunix/c37821ace10198a785b7
Rather than having a vars_files: hard coded in this playbook where would I put the vars so they can live external to these re-useable/shareable playbooks ?
Cheers
Mick Pollard

Ansible can have variables from lots of locations. You'll need to provide defaults somewhere.
From command line:
-e EXTRA_VARS, --extra-vars=EXTRA_VARS
see http://docs.ansible.com/playbooks_variables.html#passing-variables-on-the-command-line
