Last night we rolled a patch release which includes a fix for FACT-1055, a
regression which inadvertently broke backward compatibility for external facts
that are not pluginsync'ed from modules: https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/FACT-1055

The new AIO bundle (puppet-agent-1.2.1) is available in all of the Puppet
Collection 1 repositories.

I also neglected to mention in the original announcement that we now have
package repositories for Debian Jessie and Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9) and
Yosemite (10.10) and these OSes will be part of the regular release pipelines
going forward.

There's a new All-in-One Puppet Agent release available! This release bundles
new versions of several component projects and is downloadable now through the Puppet Collection 1 repository.

* Puppet 4.2 includes several features and bug fixes, and officially deprecates Windows 2003. Release notes here: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/4.2/reference/release_notes.html
* Facter 3, the rewritten C++-based facter, is now the baseline Facter
implementation. Read more here: https://puppetlabs.com/blog/speeding-up-puppet-on-windows
* Hiera 3 is included, which contains a change to the default
hierarchy and datadir location. This is technically a semver break, so it's a new major version. The gory details: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/3.0/release_notes.html
