-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all
We're back with the second release candidate for the 0.24.7 release - the last of the 0.24.x branch and codenamed Gonzo. There are a lot of new features and fixes in this release and we'd welcome whatever testing you are able to perform. You can download it here: http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.24.7rc2.tgz The MD5 hash for the file is here: http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.24.7rc2.tgz.md5 Big tickets items in the release are: * Manifest documentation http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PuppetManifestDocumentation This new functionality creates documentation from marked up manifests and modules and will make documenting your modules and configuration a piece of cake. Since we know how much we all love writing documentation I think a lot of people are going to find this a great feature. * The inline template function * Multiline comments * An augeas type * Performance enhancements for the SELinux types/support * A bunch of new OSX and Solaris types and providers including ZFS and ZPool * Support for Nagios 3.0 types and some enhancements to make the types easier to use and more compliant with Nagios configuration.
