I don't even know what pi does :-P
"puppet ca" should be "puppet cert" or "puppet ssl"
"puppet server" should have an alias "puppet master" if we are
transitioning the terminology. I don't mind "puppet server", but
people will think "master" for awhile.
"puppet run" has always bothered me, but I don't have a better term for it.
"puppet main" sucks. I like "puppet apply" better, as suggested by
someone else. "puppet sa" for "puppet standalone" ?
"puppet agent" is excellent. Should probably have an alias "puppet client"
