The maps project is, I think, in a similar situation. We are trying to 
set up a multi-server setup to test various server configurations with 
puppet and fail-over and scaling procedures before moving it to production.

Alternatively, would it be possible for the the puppet manifests to live 
in the shared project storage? E.g. at /data/project/puppet? That way 
all instances of the project would see a shared view of the files and 
when you spin up a new instance it would use the appropriately modified 
puppet files from the get go. This would be similar to the self hosted 
debian repository that lives in /data/project/repo, which is rather useful.
