I'd be interested in that! tbh I'm still quite the newbie with puppet
packaging, but if I can help out with something I'd be glad to lend a hand.

yup, that's preoccupying and should be our main focus for now. we need
the newer versions of puppet to be in debian, but mainly for the server
part, it's written in clojure and we'll need to figure out all of its
dependencies.

there's also been a couple bugs and annoying deprecation notices with
the transition to ruby 2.7, so that's another place where some efforts
could be focused on.


as side projects, I've been slowly working towards packaging
puppet-development-kit, but lately I stalled for lack of spoons.

There's also puppet-bolt that could be interesting to get packaged. and
other new Puppet projects too, like Razor.

I'm ready for this much, and maybe more if some others want to continue
working on this. I personnaly don't think I will attend much talks
during the conference.
