I'm noticing that 2.7 is still the version of Puppet in Raring;

Does this package currently not have a maintainer, or is it just slow
in Debian as well?
3.0 is an important release. (Every Puppet release is an important
release; Puppet is rather volatile.) New features include integration
of Hiera and deprecation of stored configurations in favor of PuppetDB
for the same task. Also the kick feature is deprecated in favor of
mcollective. Deprecated features still work, but the transition must
be made before they become non-existent. You cannot jump from 2.7 to
future 3.5 without pain; 3.0 still allows some things that are going
away, but provides their replacements, so you can move smoothly.
OK further research yields that Debian is not updating Sid due to
feature freeze for Testing. However, Mathisain notes this:
On the other hand, the master packaging branch at
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-puppet/puppet.git;a=summary
yields a working set of puppet 3.0.2 debs, they're just not tagged with
a debian release. Feel free to use that until we can upload to sid.
Can we see this imported to 13.04?
