I will see what I can do. I dont have a github presently, but since I am mostly working with FreeBSD I had to fix puppet's service resource, jason hancocks section that look for dhcp leases and a couple of other things. The userdata fix I put in seems to be working, though not when the puppet agent is ubuntu presently, so I am trying to track that down.
I only saw one other branch in dans and it was showing like 9 months ago for the latest work - is that the correct place I am looking? -Derek On Dec 4, 2013 8:57 PM, "David Nalley" <da...@gnsa.us> wrote: > Yeah - it's definitely a work in progress - if you look at Dan Bode's > cloudstack_resources, he actually has a ton of additional work in a > different branch that hasn't yet been validated.
