+This is where propellor's `Info` system comes in. `Propellor.Info.getOS`
+can be run to get the OS info.
+
+It's also possible to add new properties that add new values with custom
+types to `Info`.
+
+The hostname is not currently stored in `Info`, but it probably should be;
+that would be a good simplification. Currently there's a
+separate way to get the hostname: `asks hostName` (run in the Propellor monad)
