Hmm, fair enough. I think for the Advanced materials, you would want to have an up-front review and possibly have it run by a local representative (PUG owners?). That way, you can focus on the usual event and let the splinter run semi-independently.
I've just been looking at some of the recent threads and seeing the comments on Ansible vs. Puppet vs. Whatever and I realized a while back that shipping out self-contained `puppet apply` bundles via `transport mechanism X` would create a much easier to understand and use one-time build environments. I thought that something like this might be good as a hackathon target since it should be able to be done in a day with reasonable testing. Anyway, glad to see the discussion happening and I'm particularly interested since PuppetCamp DC is coming up soon ;-).
