which way is better, deploy func with puppet or puppet with func ?
Func is push-based, which means your systems need to be up and running
(and addressable) to talk to them. So it's not a good solution to make
sure a certain package is available on all of your infrastructure if you
aren't positive all of your infrastructure is up and accessible. It also
doesn't ensure that an installed package /stays/ installed, or that a
new system installed later would have it. This can result in a rather
inconsistent network if you try to do use it for that purpose.
I would (A) ensure puppet is deployed with kickstart, and/or (B) have
your puppet recipes install func.
Since Func is not really a configuration management system, it's best
for those one-off tasks that kickstart and Puppet don't cover, i.e. "do
this to my systems right now", or "generate this report". It is
exceedingly good at /both/ of those things -- but deploying apps and
having a record of what you have deployed (which IMHO is very important)
is not something it does. Both kickstart and Puppet have this because
you can look at the kickstart/recipe to see what you have instructed
each system to do.

4. independence from certmaster style certs. In theory, we support

depenencies between func/certmaster, which is also a possibility).
+1 on this. I've been wanting to reuse the puppet certs for a while now
but haven't had the chance to sit down and flesh it out in the code.
Mainly we just need to abstract out the assumptions on path/file
naming.
Shouldn't be too bad.
Honestly I'd rather see it the other way around.
Have puppet use certmaster certs...
