Hi Kyle! Thanks for doing this. Juju really does need more technical docs and I've always enjoyed your documentation efforts. There isn't really an official version of Juju for 12.04. It was rejected for main inclusion for various reasons, and thus ships from universe. Since then the python version shipped in 12.04 has slowed down quite a bit in favor of the shiny new go version, which is nearing feature parity with juju 0.6. I personally can't recommend the python version, as it is rife with rather large security issues, most of which are addressed in the go rewrite. I'm sure you have deadlines, and this is tricky, but you might want to focus on juju 2.0 when it comes out, and how it works with the latest maas in Ubuntu 12.04 at the time, which will likely be the "current" maas. -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
