I'm here.  I have no idea how much time I'll have, but we use Puppet
extensively, so I want to at least keep an eye on things.  I'm also in
favor of using git given that upstream is using it, although I've never
used it except for very simple things and will need to spend some time
figuring out how to use it.  But that's to some extent an advantage.  I've
needed a good excuse.

If the group picks a standard workflow and branch management strategy for
git, I'd love it if that could be documented somewhere for those of us who
aren't familiar with it and need to learn.
