Interesting. I have never used puppet, but I'm ok to use it (if you
think that's better).

</I>
I think we did not use very advanced features of cfengine, so maybe it
would be not too difficult to convert to puppet.

By the way, do you have a backup of the cfengine directory on the
Mandriva build system ?
