Hi,

I have a problem that maybe some of you have faced, to which I
cannot find a trivial solution.

I have a master that spawns more than one kind of slaves, and 
different kinds of slaves should run on different machines.
Without writing my own tasker, is there any way of ensuring
that slaves of type A will run on one group of hosts, slaves
of type B on another, etc..? (The groups pf hosts cannot be
distinguished by architecture).

Cheers
