Hi I understand that you won't build new packages any longer. But why are you removing the old packages? Why can't you keep the packages around? Some of these packages are needed in order to upgrade to a newer release.
Is there an archive server at least where the old packages could be found? Almost all mature open source projects still offer a historical archives of the old packages. I feel that one thing puppet labs is failing to understand here is how puppet is the perfect technology to update those end-of-life systems and how harmful is this removal of old packages to your own technology that you have built here.
