Is it possible to support osfamily instead ? would be easier to put all rhel clones under the same hood

In metadata.json, they really are just random strings without any meaning: you can write anything that please you and it will be conveniently ignored.

However, https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet_metadata use this info to setup the acceptance tests build matrix.

Some people are thinking about extending / re-thinking the metadata.json file in modules, and that may be part of it (sort of indicate some fact matching requirements and any OS that match is considered supported). I think this goes under the voxpupuli/community-triage#14 umbrella.

These things are discussed at the monthly voxpupuli meetup, and everyone is free to join. And it has a convenient time for people in EU 😉: https://voxpupuli.org/contributing/#monthly-sync
