# README:
#  This playbook uploads a tarball to the $HOME/plone.buildout/products directory
#  of each server and restarts the Supervisor process
#
#  This playbook can be used to install Plone Hotfixes.
#
#  The playbook searches for folders with names starting with 'plone.buildout'
#  at the home folder. It uploads the tarfile stated in the vars that must
#  be prepared beforehand, and then reloads the supervisor
#
#  This playbook asumes that your buildout has a top-most 'products' folder
#  that will be included in your zope instance's configuration
#
