Count me one of the 10 (100?). I for one would try to get my $employer to buy support. And I'd probably cost you money at first in supporting me since I'm not a programmer and completely Ruby illiterate. I'm intrigued by puppet, got a proof of concept instance running, looked at what I really wanted to do with it and decided I didn't have the time/bandwidth to figure out ERB and everything else now. Things to gentle the learning curve would be awesome. Until they exist and/or I have a nice chunk of time to try to force new knowledge into my poor brain, I will probably not be moving much past my proof of concept. --Susan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
