I''ve published the tarballs and whatever bad packages my publishing
system knows how to create; look for more official debs, sun
packages, and rpms in the near future, hopefully. Note that this is
mostly a bug-fix release, and I expect it to be a pretty painless
upgrade for most everyeone (but please, test before upgrading).
Here''s the changelog:
Compile times now persist between restarts of puppetd.
Timeouts have been added to many parts of Puppet, reducing the
likelihood
if it hanging forever on broken scripts or servers.
All of the documentation and recipes have been moved to the wiki
by Peter
Abrahamsen and Ben Kite has moved the FAQ to the wiki.
Explicit relationships now override automatic relationships,
allowing you
to manually specify deletion order when removing resources.
Resources with dependencies can now be deleted as long as all of
their
dependencies are also being deleted.
Namespaces for both classes and definitions now work much more
consistently.
You should now be able to specify a class or definition with a
namespace
everywhere you would normally expect to be able to specify one
without.
Downcasing of facts can be selectively disabled.
Cyclic dependency graphs are now checked for and forbidden.
The netinfo mounts provider was commented out, because it really
doesn''t
work at all. Stupid NetInfo stores mount information with the
device as
the key, which doesn''t work with my current NetInfo code.
Otherwise, lots and lots of bugfixes. Check the tickets
associated with the
''kermit'' milestone.
Enjoy.

If I had gotten this release out sooner (sorry!), you could have continued downcasing of facts rather than renaming your directories. The default, from now on, will be to keep the case of facts but to have a case-insensitive language as much as possible. -- If smiling uses so fewer muscles than frowning, how come it hurts my face so much? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Kanies | http://reductivelabs.com | http://madstop.com
