** Next PR Triage Wednesday, August 13th @ 10:00 am Pacific. **

Priorities

  1. Puppet 3.7.0/4.0.0 with the final language polish as well as many
other changes.
  2. Windows stability improvements/x64 support
  3. CFacter on the march
  4. New puppet doc implementation

Commentary

There was a bit of kerfuffle :) around the language. What I've taken away
from the discussion is that we need to publicize and RFC changes much more.
This will make evolution of the language much more transparent and
democratic. In addition we are going to be working to put more changes in
front of the Puppet Labs Test Pilots to test the usability of changes.

Josh Cooper got a change to allow the agent to cache HTTP connections to
the master (PUP-744). This should have some pretty significant performance
(and maybe load) improvements since the agent won't need to re-establish an
SSL connection for every file.

CFacter is slimming itself down a little. It is going to try to rely only
on boost and use boost functionality whenever possible. The first change in
this direction was dropping log4cxx in favor of boost's logging
functionality.

Hailee has sent out an announcement about the work that she is starting up
to get a replacement for puppet doc. The current manifest doc tool has been
incredibly hard for us to maintain and has not faired well during changes
in ruby version.

I believe that the x64 work for windows is nearing completion. Not quite
there yet, but should be very soon.
