Puppet users - Jul 2009 - An idea for automatic koha installation

Hi All,

I am working on koha, koha is a Integrated Library Management System. Koha
is world widely used open source software.
I think puppet is a good system, which we can use automate koha installation
irrespective of Linux distribution.

I am not sure, about anyone who already working on puppet scripting for koha
installation.
If there is not any already effort toward it, then we can start it from now.

Now, i want to know, how many of you interested in puppet for koha, so that
we start this project as a collaborative effort.

About koha: http://www.koha.org

thanks & regards

Looking at the application I suspect you''re right - modules managing
Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl are all available from the various module
collections:

I don''t know of anyone but someone on the list might pop up.

I suspect by combining a number of the existing modules it would be easy
to build something for koha and then customise further for your needs.
