telperion contains all the host definitions for my environment, it pulls from other items
underneath minas-tarwon to accomplish this.
telperion organizes and contains [[domains]], which in turn contain Each domain is a subdirectory,
each containing a further subdirectory per [[role]].
Separately, the cadaster/ subdirectory contains hardware descriptions for each machine by it's
canonical name, as well as any other notes about the system, a change log for the system, etc.
telperion relies on narya, glamdring, and laurelin to provide the modules it configures.
Telperion is the name of one of the two trees of Valinor in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium. I pronounce it "tell-PEH-ree-on", emphasis on the second syllable. I trill the 'r', and it has a vaguely Spanish quality about it. I justify this by the etymology of the name, "telperion" is from "telpë", which means "silver" in Quenya, and the suffix "-ion" which means "descendant" or "son of". I don't know if that's actually right, but it sounds nice to me.
