Puppet 3.0 has a lot of performance improvements and some new functionality compared to Puppet 2.7. For a new deployment I definitely recommend trying Puppet 3.0. It's fairly easy to install using the packages we publish at yum.puppetlabs.com and apt.puppetlabs.com. Information is available at: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/puppetlabs_package_repositories.html The other thing to keep in mind is that Puppet uses semantic version numbers. There are some incompatibilities between Puppet 2.7 and 3.0. We will make every effort to preserve compatibility across the entire 3.x series, so starting with 3.0 should give you a really long "compatibility horizon" so to speak.
