+# sshkeyshare plugin
+Cloudify plugin for creating ssh key pairs on the fly
+# Description
+The sshkeyshare Cloudify plugin creates an ssh key pair that can be used,
+by VMs or other containers spun up by a Cloudify blueprint, for establishing
+connections, among them. The blue print can, for example, provide the
+private key to one VM and the public one to another, as part of their
+initial configuration, to allow the one with the private key to
+automatically connect to the other one, to run commands.
+# Plugin Requirements
+* Python versions
+ * 2.7.x
+
+Note: These requirements apply to the VM where Cloudify Manager itself runs.
+
+Note: Cloudify Manager, itself, requires Pythong 2.7.x (and CentOS 7).
+
