I would love to see puppet forge as we have the distribution
repositories.. Modules audited, tested and maybe fixed by PuppetLabs and
then officially released on puppet forge under the puppetlabs account.
I see some scenarios that puppetlabs could consider:
1. puppetlabs is taking a lot of time to check pull requests on their
forge modules and release new versions. I sent a pull request some days
ago for one of their modules and I noticed there were other pull
requests for the same module submitted a few "months ago" that weren't
merged yet.
2. Users could create modules following the modules standard by creating
documentation, parameterized modules, etc and then Puppetlabs could
easily onboard those modules under their account and start supporting
the module officially. I try to use only puppetlabs modules on puppet
forge because I know they have great quality.
Problem is that if I write module for administering for example Koji
build system, it is very hard for someone to audit and fix my module -
because that person should know everythin about Koji, how to install it,
what are possible options, etc. So I really don' see a plausible way to
that kind of work.
Easier scenario would be to divide forge into stable, testing, unstable,
and put modules into stable only if there are maintainers behind them,
who fix issues on a regular basis.
