[chef-dev] Update - Opscode "application" cookbook recipes

[Joshua Timberman < >]

Ohai Chefs,


Version 2.0.0 of the application cookbook is released.

This post went to the developers list yesterday. We were waiting for final
touches on COOK-1673, which Andrea Campi provided. Thanks, Andrea!

The following tickets were addressed in this release:

* [COOK-1673] - Deploy_revision in the application cookbook gives an
  argument error
* [COOK-1820] - Application cookbook: remove deprecated recipes

Cheers,
Joshua
