I'm not sure where a list of the major differences between 2.x and 3.x is
published.

I think it's worth noting 2.6 is pretty old and 3.0.0 only exists in
release candidate packages, not as an official release.

I recommend trying Puppet 2.7 which is much newer and has many bugfixes.
 We've only been doing security related bugfixes against 2.6 for some time
now.

I also recommend installing the most recent packages from our own
repository at https://yum.puppetlabs.com/  Detailed information is at:
