After a delicious trip to Pirate O's for lunch, it was back for a presentation by Joseph Hall on custom Puppet facts. Even ignoring the fact that I came in late, a lot of this was way over my head. It reminded me that I would do well to invest some more time into my Puppet system as there are many many more things I could do with it. If anybody has some free time I could borrow, please let me know.

Miscellaneous Notes:

• manage fstab
• hosts
• require "facter"
• Facter.add
• external node classifier. use any language as long as output is yaml
• classifier runs on puppetmaster
• custom facts run on client
