My reasoning is pretty simplistic. Because Luke is a businessman who  
built Puppet with what I believe is the goal of turning it into a  
sustainable business that solves problems for businesses. All of the  
other alternatives were built by academics as reasons to write papers  
that would get them to LISA for free. I sat down with Luke and someone  
from RedHat 3 or 4 years ago while he was developing Puppet, and had a  
bitch session about why I hated CFEngine. I clearly laid out what
I felt would be valuable (IE something I'd pay for) and it felt that  
he listened. It was the right move.
