I dont know if this is 'rational' to you, but it is to me: puppet has a lot of momentum going for it. _A lot_. Luke spent years building a community, writing documentation, troubleshooting on freenode, etc. That has yielded a lot of users very quickly. There is integration with other market players, like EC2/UEC/etc. Moreover puppet users are taking advantage of puppet architecture to allow for things like puppet modules to make their way to github for public consumption, contributions and the like. This has always been a thorn in the craw for us cf2 users. "Your inputs are just different enough than my inputs; thanks but no thanks." Theres no community of sharing cf recipes, which sucks since we gravitate to declarative cfg mgmt in the first place ... right? (How many acrobatic ways can I manage a Solaris crontab, Linux sendmail configuration, ensure processes are running, check disks for file promises, etc). cf3 does hope to break that open with bundles, which has us cf2 shops very excited. :)
NB: Im not a cf zealot by any means ... I swear! ;) My work background has just been 100% cf2 for several years when I don the cfg mgmt hard hat. In my non-work life, I also play with puppet.
