 338 This is a class that gives access to the configured fact provider such as
 339 MCollectives::Facts::Facter that uses Reductive Labs facter
 340 </p>
 341 <p>
 342 The actual provider is pluggable and configurable using the
 343 &#8216;factsource&#8217; configuration option.
 344 </p>
 345 <p>
 346 To develop a new factsource simply create a class under
 347 MCollective::Facts:: and provide the following classes:
 348 </p>
 349 <pre>
 350   self.get_fact(fact)
 351   self.has_fact?(fact)
 352 </pre>
 353 <p>
 354 You can also just inherit from <a
 355 href="Facts/Base.html">MCollective::Facts::Base</a> and provide just the
 356 </p>
 357 <pre>
 358   self.get_facts
 359 </pre>
 360 <p>
 361 method that should return a hash of facts.
