Puppet released a “lite” version of the DSC module today (release here. I’ve recently hit a wall where I needed to add a couple of DSC resources that weren’t in the main module and figuring out the previous process was a bit beyond my time constraints so I’m looking forward to giving this a spin.
Also looking forward to not explaining to people why they check their puppet runs on Linux systems and see Exchange and Sharepoint popping up everywhere during the plugin sync. You want pluginsync to benefit from a reduced footprint. might be the understatement of the year. :)
