Many thanks for pointing to EPP.
We can not yet switch to EPP.
We want our example42 modules to be compatible with puppet 3 and 4 and will do
a version bump very soon offering new language features..
Besides this:
when I saw this construct (accessing variables from another module(!! sic)) my
in-brain puppet parser already went nuts.
I decided to add the variable as parameter which makes it now far more clear
where the value is taken from.
Best,
Martin

I prefer to not do that.
