Puppet 3.0.0-rc6 (Telly) Release Notes
====================================
# Overview
Puppet 3.0, code name Telly, is the first major release to Puppet
since June 2011. With the help of our amazing community contributors,
we''ve built a Release Candidate that merits a "dot-oh". We

configurations and operating systems. Because of that, we need smart
folks like you to validate that it''s working in your environment.
Here''s how you can help:
1. Download Puppet 3.0
2. Read this changelog to identify any config changes you''ll need to
make
3. File bugs in the [Puppet Redmine issue tracker][1]
4. [Let us know][2] when you''re headed to production

# Summary of Changes
This is not an exhaustive summary, but rather an editorialized list of
the biggest changes. See the Git changelog for the full monty.

Notation like `(puppet/pull/998)` indicate a github pull request at
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/998
## Cool New Stuff
* Performance Improvements - substantial improvements to performance,
particularly around catalog compilation. Agent now uses JSON for
catalog cache, which can be dramatically faster for large catalogs
(#16058, #2892)
* Data Bindings - hiera will be automatically consulted for values of
parameterized classes so you don''t need the parser functions. (#11608)
* Improved OS/Platform Support - Full Ruby 1.9 support; vastly
improved Windows package support; yumrepo now supports ssl options
(#3324); better upstart support; better Solaris zone, package and
service support;
* Loading Plugins from Rubygems - you can now install and use puppet
extension code (faces, types, providers) via rubygems. (#7788)
* Server Auto-Discovery - Puppet agents can use SRV records in DNS to
find CA, master, report, and file servers (#3669)
* Semantic Versioning - With 3.0.0, Puppet Labs makes a commitment to
follow the Semantic Versioning guidelines outlined on semver.org.
Public, documented APIs won''t break until 4.0; minor-version 3.x
releases will add new features while retaining compatibility, and
tiny-version 3.0.x releases will be bugfix-only.
## DSL/Config Changes
* Variable Scoping - Dynamic scoping has been removed.
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/scope_and_puppet.html
* Auth.conf differentiates between names and IPs - There''s a new
`allow_ip` keyword in auth.conf if you want to permit IP addresses.
(PR991)
* `unless` is available as a synonym for `if !` (#7762)
* Pluginsync now defaults to true - Yep, it''s true. (#5521)
* Updated `config.ru` syntax -- When running the master under Rack,
make sure you update your config.ru to follow the example from
ext/rack/files/config.ru in the source distribution. (#15337)
## Changed Code Behaviour
* External Node Classifier and Environments - If there''s a conflict
between the environment requested by a client and what''s set in the
external node classifier, the ENC wins. (#3910)
* When running puppet as root, the system-wide `confdir` and `vardir`
settings will be used. When running as a non-root user, `confdir` will
be `~/.puppet/` and `vardir` will be `~/.puppet/var`, which now relies
on $HOME being set in your environment. (#16137, /puppet/pull/1080)
