Your confusion is understandable.
1.7.0 isn''t out. It is in the master branch for facter on github. We
had some plans on 1.7.0 earlier when the docs were being written, but
then found some incompatibilities in Puppet''s usage of them. Those
are getting resolved currently. The plans are to have an RC on the
next series of facter in the 6 weeks or so.
You can also use Puppet Labs stdlib to get things like facts.d usage,
which is a nice feature.
