Hi! Puppet 2.7 is waiting to get pushed to stable and I just wanted to give people a heads up about the upgrade procedure. Please ensure that your master(s) get upgraded before your agents. I'd recommend following this [1] guide. This upgrade is critical because 2.6 is no longer supported and doesn't receive security releases, leaving both masters and agents potentially susceptible to attack.

Let me know if you've got any issues or questions.

> Will you do a 2.7 for EPEL5 as well? That's the plan. I pushed EPEL6 first since I figured more people would be running masters on the newer distro and masters need to be on newer versions than agents.

I'm hoping to get the EPEL5 upgrade into testing by the end of the week.

Any update on this one? Could we please have puppet 2.7 for RHEL5 soonish? Thanks! :-)
