[[chef-dev]] Re: [[chef-dev]] Notify blocks

That isn't the same thing, it would a ruby block generating a  
notification, not receiving one. It can certainly be done already  
though (see the link I pasted) but it looks kind of clunky. There is  
already a precedent with not_if and only_if of taking either a block  
or "something else" too.
