[puppet] Propose retiring puppet-freezer
Hello, Today I looked into the current code of puppet-freezer and noticed this module is still very incomplete. Most of its implementations are inherited from the cookiecutter template, and the module doesn't support fundamental resources like packages, services and so on. Because we haven't seen any interest in fixing that feature gap for a long time, I'll propose retiring the module during this cycle. Please let me know if you have any concerns. If I don't hear any objections I'll submit a series of patches to retire the module. Thank you, Takashi Kajinami
Because I've heard no objections for one week, I'll move forward patches to retire the module. In case you have any concerns please put a comment in the following reviews. https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:retire-puppet-freezer On Mon, Sep 6, 2021 at 11:53 PM Takashi Kajinami <tkajinam@redhat.com> wrote:

Hi, I may have, in a distant future, some interest for it. However, retiring it is probably the best thing to do: I can revert the retirement later on if I decide to go ahead and maintain it. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Thanks for the feedback. We can revert the retirement when you (or anybody else) start working on it. The sad fact is that this module has never been completed for the past 4 years, and it'd be reasonable to retire the module now instead of keeping the current incomplete implementation any longer.
