I agree with you two on both counts.  I would expect the meaning of 
'promise_repaired' to apply only to promises which converged after having been 
found to be out of convergence.   I would also hope, from a practical 
standpoint, for "warn_only" promises that are out of convergence to fall into 
the "not kept" category - otherwise, as Neil points out, compliance reports are 
not as meaningful.  

That said, one could make the argument that the promiser's intent, in a "warn 
only" promise, is not to bring itself itself into convergence, but instead to 
warn that it is out of convergence -- and so, the promise is kept?  I too am 
curious to hear Cfengine's stance.
