Thanks, that's helpful too. Out of curiosity, are you using modules for
the msyql/pg stuff that you've copied above? Or is it something that you

I would vote in favor of a single module with multiple providers. As
Puppet grows up and becomes more powerful I think this model is going to

look like w/rt managing rdbms with puppet.
