To confirm this, upstream has removed the v1/v2 HTTP APIs[1] from the 
Ruby Puppet Master in 4.x[2] *and* the Puppet Server until 2.1, but 
added them back to Puppet Server in 2.1.

It looks as if / was simply moved to /v3, so we *might* be able to bring 
it back trivially. I'll have a look at that.

Apollon
