Puppet 0.25.2 - code-named “Zoe”
The 0.25.2 release is a significant maintenance release (123 tickets closed!) in the 0.25.x branch.
Thanks to all who contributed to the release and tested fixes - especially (but not limited to!) Peter Meier (duritong), R.I. Pienaar (Volcane), Mark Plaskin, Dan Bode, Alan Harder, Ricky Zhou, Christian Hofstaedtler, Todd Zullinger, Till Mass, Nigel Kersten, and especially Markus Roberts and Jesse Wolfe who worked around the clock to get the release out the door.
The release is available at:
http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.25.2.tar.gz
http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.25.2.gem
Please note that all future final releases of Puppet will be signed with the Reductive Labs key. Unfortunately, I am travelling and unable to access to the box with the release key on it or its backup. A signature will be generated for this release early next week when I return to Australia.
