[Spacewalk-list] Cloning channel from script

[Franky Van Liedekerke]

I have several perl scripts that do all that: create new cloned channels, subscribe servers to the new channels, update kickstart profiles and activation keys. 
Even a extra web interface in php and perl crontab to manage the patching of thousands of servers via spacewalk. 
If interested, I can put them on github ...
