Forge is mainly a community repository for modules with little curation or identification between the good and the bad. We're eager to change this, having formed a dedicated team around Forge this past July. What you'll see from us in the next several months is making the contribution process natural and easy. We'll also be adding features to help you during the decision making process on whether a module is worth using or not. As we do these things, we'll be moving closer and closer to where we could go down the path of slicing the Forge into different distributions of modules that represent various levels of care and polish. The Forge has seen a dramatic increase in the last several months in both number of modules and quality modules. It certainly can be hard to find the good ones but we'll work on that. Check out the Recently Active list on the homepage for what's getting regular love and our module of the week blog posts. If you've got a particular problem that you're trying to solve, feel free to email me. I'll respond with a module that I know to be in good shape or make a note to chase one down. On features, please take a look at open feature requests, vote & comment them up or add a brand new feature request for your needs. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/module-site/issues Feedback is always appreciated on the list or feel free to ping me individually via email or ryancoleman on IRC. I hope you bear with us as we improve the Forge. I'm really excited to work on making it better. I'll leave you with an awesome talk from CERN at PuppetConf about science, Puppet & Forge. :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ykb2j2ojYU&list=PLV86BgbREluVFB73Wwqp_tCbw5Z9TMLX1&index=1&feature=plpp_video -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
