Hi,

I just wanted to clarify something from this email. Although the best way to
get traction for a ticket in the future will be voting in the ticketing
system, people are always welcome to highlight particular tickets in order
to solicit votes.

With that in mind, a quick list of things that I have found particularly
frustrating about Puppet:

https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4408

Puppet should at least warn (or better yet fail) when you try to use an
undefined variable (it should not warn/fail, however if a variable was
explicitly set to undef)

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3910

a +1 to ENCs being authoritative over environments. I have done some ugly
hacks that I am ashamed of to work around this.

listing the internal resources in the reports creates lots of unnecessary
(and useless) data in reports
