Hello!

I'm excited to announce the release of version 1.0.0 of danzilio/letsencrypt 
<https://forge.puppetlabs.com/danzilio/letsencrypt>. This release brings a lot 
of big changes; some of the biggest include Puppet 3 compatibility and the 
ability to install the Let's Encrypt client from packages instead of source 
(BIG thanks to Dominic Cleal for both of these contributions). 

I originally wrote this module with the intent to support only Puppet versions 
>= 4.0. It quickly became clear that this excluded a lot of Puppet users and, 
after some discussion, I decided to accept a contribution removing the Puppet 
4-only features from this module. It was ultimately a small change that 
broadened the reach of this module quite a bit.

Also, when I wrote this module, there were no native packages available for the 
Let's Encrypt client. Now packages are available in EPEL, and will be included 
in core repositories for upcoming Debian and Ubuntu releases. As a result, 
we've begun the transition away from installing the client from source. This 
release introduces the ability to select an `install_method` of `package` or 
`vcs`.

Please note that on Debian >= 9, Ubuntu >= 16.04, and RedHat platforms the 
default installation method will be `package` while all others will remain 
`vcs` for now. For RedHat users, this means that we're configuring EPEL using 
the stahnma/epel <https://forge.puppetlabs.com/stahnma/epel> module by default 
now. Of course, we've made this a parameter that can be toggled using the 
`configure_epel` parameter.

For more information on changes in this release, please see the CHANGELOG:

Thanks again to Dominic Cleal for all his work on this release!

David
