Sorry, have a few more questions now that I've got my AIX dev. system at work going. I'm sorta new to the Puppet community in general and don't want to upset anyone by stepping on toes, especially the developers. :)
1 - Luke, you had mentioned that the facter repo was at git://reductivelabs.com/facter and that there was one published on github. I see two on there ( one is yours, one is James' ) - which one should I be using to go forward with? I only ask because I know the new release of facter is coming and James' github repo seemed to have more updates. Like I said, I just wanted to get started on the right foot here. 2 - I've read over the Development Lifecycle and while it assumes the user is contributing to puppet, I'm assuming much of the same is meant for facter. Only question is - is facter in the same state of 'master' being the dev branch and having a 1.5x branch as the stable one or has it been reversed to match what puppet will be in the future ( master = stable, x.x.x = dev branch? ) 3 - I just want to clarify - any work I intend on doing, in puppet or facter, I should first submit a trac ticket for tracking purposes, correct? Whether it be a bug fix or enhancement? And last, but not least, what category do you guys file 'code cleanup' under? While it's not a bug because the code already works, it's also not really an enhancement. Just curious if I should file these under the trivial fixes department along with the spelling errors and such.
