+#part-handler
+# vi: syntax=python ts=4
+# this is an example of a version 2 part handler.
+# the differences between the initial part-handler version
+# and v2 is:
+#  * handle_part receives a 5th argument, 'frequency'
+#    frequency will be either 'always' or 'per-instance'
+#  * handler_version must be set
+#
+# A handler declaring version 2 will be called on all instance boots, with a
+# different 'frequency' argument.
