Sounds good, and sounds like it addresses the basic needs. (That metadata, I think, will be very important.) Will general best practice for forge modules to be developed against current latest puppet version, or maintain backward compatibility going forward? e.g. - let's say there is a version of a module that works with 2.7, when Telly ships will the plan be for the modules to be required to support both puppet versions, or just Telly? Or are you guys thinking that there will be separate modules for different versions of puppet? (Perhaps you guys aren't there yet in your planning?)
