Editing CFEngine3 Node (section)

== Supported Platforms ==
As of November 2014 the focus has been on integration of The CFEngine Roadshow with the official Masterfiles at the expense of the expansion of platform support. We now have integrated Masterfiles and now really are ready to extend platform support. We feel Android and Rasberry Pi support are the greater challenges, wheras Ubuntu, Centos, opensuse, Gentoo and Mint support are very useful.
* Debian
* Centos / Fedora
* Suse
* Ubuntu
Please file a request if you do not find your preferred platform.

With efficient use of bandwidth in mind the preferred method of installation is a netinstall, we assume x86_64. The CFEngine Roadshow uses local mirrors and needs no external connection in order to be able to install and configure guest VM's.

=== CFEngine Community ===
Please install CFEngine 3.6.2-1 for your installation method of choice. The CFEngine Debian-team are proud to announce cfengine3-3.6.2 made it Debian Jessie. CFEngine has an important bug fix release 3.6.3, we will incorporate this release as soon as possible. The CFEngine Roadshow so far for practical reasons still uses the release issued by cfengine.com.
