So uh, as you can see from the subject there's been a little bit of a gap between the last email and this one. I got super sick and forgot to put it together, so you have my apologies if you were paying attention!
Over the last two weeks we've continued to focus on the backlog of PRs as well as working on a number of things internally related to testing. I won't bore you with the details but we've been having conversations around different testing frameworks, improvements to rspec-system provisioning, how to automatically test multi-node setups, just all sorts of stuff related to "how can we help you guys test modules better?". This is chewing up a lot of internal time as we start working out what we're doing! Over the last 2 weeks we've released a bunch of modules and in no special order they are: http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/ntp/2.0.0-rc1 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/vswitch/0.1.1 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/rabbitmq/3.0.0-rc2 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/java/1.0.1 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/postgresql/2.4.1 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/nodejs/0.3.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/passenger/0.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/xinetd/1.2.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/apache/0.8.1 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/pe_upgrade/1.0.0 The openstack Puppet modules have also had a bunch of releases: http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/cinder/2.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/horizon/2.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/nova/2.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/glance/2.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/keystone/2.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/openstack/2.1.0 http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/quantum/2.1.1 A quiet two weeks! I've also been working (slowly) on prototypes for the new "data in modules" feature that was merged into puppet master. The short story for that for people unaware of the feature is "hiera 2.. in your modules!". It adds a huge amount of flexibility and clever features and I'm doing my best to understand how it all hangs together so we can help put together guides for everyone else. We have some other projects on the go I don't want to announce yet, but you can rest assured we are busy trying to make module writing a pleasure for everyone. As always you can contact ashp@ and hunner@ on #puppet with any concerns, questions, wild rants about what jerks we are, and so forth.
