Thanks for this, noted.
For what it's worth, compared the - *ahem* - alternatives, I think Cobbler
fulfils its role rather well and is easier to set up and understand.
Anyway, I'm not about to embark on writing any new tools if I can get away with
what's on the shelf. Writing a Cobbler provider for Puppet is more of a mission
than I want to take on at this moment in time. (I have other missions which may
kill me yet.)
Cheers,
