I'd like to look at improving facter to get to a 2.0 and want to think
about getting volatile/dynamic facts working properly. To fix issues
such as:

http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1365
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1424

We were thinking about namespacing with an _ for collections such as
interfaces and registering a dynamic fact type.

Particularly when running in a long running process such as puppet, we
have some static facts across the process lifetime which are unlikely
to change - kernel version springs to mind as an obvious one. Others
such as ip addresses may be volatile on different systems but static

Is it worth branching the main facter repo for dev and for basic bug
fixes for 1.5 series now?

Paul
