Sweet.

For the 3.4 cycle you had asked me to produce a "feature page" for
puppet. I guess it got forgotten about, but here's the link if you're
still interested:
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Planning34/PuppetModuleWIP
If you'd like to include this in 3.5, please feel free to move the page
to where it should belong.

It currently does most of what I want, however I think it could use some
changes and optimization's to make it perfect for everyone else. The
easiest way for me to get it there is to probably have some one on one
dev time with a gluster pro and sit and discuss some issues.

It could then get distributed along with the puppet packages to help out
admins. One advantage is that it provides a sort of defacto
documentation for those who want even more. I think this could help
address some recent (whether valid or not) complaints about lack of
documentation.

I hope this helps!
Cheers,
James - Gluster volunteer
