[chef-dev] Cookbook Releases, summit edition

[Joshua Timberman < >]

Ohai!

Last week we had the first Opscode Chef Community Summit in Seattle. A hot 
topic from that related to cookbooks is whether the project should stay as a 
single large repository with the 118 cookbooks, or whether they should be 
split up into separate per-cookbook repositories. The overwhelming majority 
of people that we talked to were in favor of separate repositories because it 
makes it easier to contribute, and manage for end-users. This has also been 
requested over the last couple years since the creation of the cookbooks 
project in the first place. It will require additional work, workflow 
documentation and supporting code for us to manage, so please bear with us as 
we get the repositories ready and released.

With that said, here's the highlights of cookbook releases from the past week 
or so:
