Yes, this would be very useful. That said, it's not that we need Facter to store historical data. We need *something* to store historical data. Probably not Facter. Probably an inventory service. Probably something that provides a rich query interface, like CouchDB. -- Rein Henrichs http://puppetlabs.com This message was brought to you by Linux, the free unix.
