I just went back and re-read every complaint, and they can all be summed up in 1. Too much complexity for too little gain (both of which are very subjective) 2. You shouldn't use puppet for that. The second one requires replacing puppet with a configuration management system which can do the job, so it's an odd thing for everyone to suggest. There hasn't been a single comment about the technical merits of this change - even from yourself. It's also funny that everyone says "this should be a major version number change" without considering that this is exactly what I am asking, since we are on the verge of a major version number upgrade. -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : net philanthropy to improve open source and internet projects. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
