I agree that it's harder than it should be. I think are some great tools, but they're not easy for most organizations to integrate unless there is a really big push to make it happen.
I've been playing around with Blueprint [1] because I like the idea of being able to dip a toe in without plunging in the deepend with Chef/Puppet.
We're massive fans of Blueprint. Richard et al did an amazing job with it. Anything that lowers the friction for use of Chef and Puppet is a great thing. We're looking forward to working more closely with the Blueprint guys with what we're doing as they are definitely fellow travellers in the fight to make the best tools easier to use :)
