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 ;-).

Thanks,

Trevor
