Announce: Puppet 3.5.0 now available!

[Eric Sorenson]

Puppet 3.5.0 is now available as an official release.

NEW IN PUPPET 3.5:
The biggest things in this release are:
* A new way to set up environments, which codifies and extends the popular "dynamic environments" pattern
* A cleaner replacement for the classic `import nodes/*.pp` pattern
* Scriptable configuration with a new `puppet config set` command
* A new global `$facts` hash
* Early support for hashes and arrays in fact values
* Improvements to the future parser
* Support for RHEL 7, Ruby 2.1, and Facter 2.0
…along with many smaller improvements and bug fixes.

For detailed release notes about these (and other) improvements, see:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3.5/reference/release_notes.html#puppet-350

To install Puppet 3.5.0, follow the installation guide:

Thanks to all our RC testers, and everyone else who helped prepare this release!

This release of puppet was withdrawn after bugs were identified.

Yeah, this one cost me a few hours today.

None of our changes to the manifests were applied to any nodes. There were no errors so we hadn't even noticed for a few days. Even creating obvious errors in the code did not cause any problems on the nodes. It seemed like the master was caching some old version. It took me a while to realize that the master actually compiled empty catalogs for each node and to trace it back to the dynamic environments bug. The 'puppet master --compile' command was helpful there.

Once again, the lesson was to be careful with updating to a .0 release.

Regards, Martijn
