My Enlistment

Week before last, I took a three-day, Puppet course, taught by Ben Ford, of Puppet labs.  Nice course, but now I need to use it.  The best way would be to work on a big, Puppet installation, but my company doesn't have one.

As luck would have it, Kevin Fenzi, who ramrods Fedora Infrastructure, gave a nice, Boulder Linux Users Group (BLUG) talk in February and mentioned that they use puppet.  Also, his group has an apprentice program, where novices can get adult supervision.

Every Thursday night, I wander over to the Southern Sun, my neighborhood brewpub, for supper and beer with folks I know from BLUG.  Afterwards, we head over to Caffe Sole, a coffee shop in the same shopping center, and geek out.  Regulars include Chuck Hipschmann, Rich Johnson, and ... Kevin.


Last Thursday night, over coffee and with Kevin Fenzi's coaching, I signed on as a Fedora Apprentice.
