It does today, but we should be fixing that this year. All of the groundwork is laid, now we just need to make the actual change. I've got a branch out that gets us 95% of the way there, but I couldn't get it done in time for 2.6, so it's gotten a bit musty. I don't know if it'll be in 2.7, but definitely this year. -- It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare. -- Mark Twain --------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Kanies -|- http://puppetlabs.com -|- +1(615)594-8199 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
