[chef-dev] 1/9 Opscode Code Review

[Joshua Timberman < >]

To Merge:
- CHEF-3731: Delayed attribute evaluation
- CHEF-3735: typos in resource names should show the typo in the error
  message/exception
- CHEF-3452: Use pull 535, move message about
  --force to knife plugin instead of Chef::CookbookUpload class
- CHEF-3685: rspec tests fail because chef-10.16.2.gem does not
  contain .dotfile
- COOK-2172: Mysql cookbook duplicates binlog_format configuration
- COOK-2181: Adding full module support to iis cookbook
- COOK-2186: add service escalation to nagios (fix log messages)
- COOK-1469: memcached cookbook should include_recipe "yum::epel" for
  RHEL 5
- COOK-1746: (fix dangling '<' in template)
- COOK-2190: clean up release notes, move from README to CHANGELOG
- COOK-2191: maven3 recipe's "version" doesn't match the attributes
- COOK-2180: Plugin management via node attributes
 -COOK-2192: Add option to use cron_d resource for cron management

Other:
- CHEF-3714: Reopen, find out what needs to be public to use the code,
  if it is to find out if the file was edited, a public
  method, #file_edited? perhaps
- CHEF-3712: Reopen, followup for query in comment
- CHEF-3611: Reopen, separate method, bonus points for a separate class
- CHEF-2576: Followup with folks for review, comments added in PRs
- CHEF-972: Reopen, Need to send event for output formatters
  
https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/lib/chef/formatters/doc.rb#L162
-L166
- CHEF-3734: Reopen, what is the use case for enable_checkout, need
  tests. checkout_branch is useful though
- CHEF-3644: Reopen, does this work on RHEL 5? Needs existing test
  updated (e.g.
  
https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/spec/unit/provider/package/yum_
spec.rb#L321)
- CHEF-3719, duplicate of CHEF-3452
- CHEF-3693: Reopen, pending followup in comments, not requiring
  rubygems would be cool
- CHEF-2994: Internal followup
- COOK-2183: Reopened, we'll want to make this better for extending to
  other packages available from nginx.org (apt etc)
- COOK-2187: Won't fix, leave this up to local admins to set in their
  own cookbook
- COOK-2188: Reopened, use #to_i instead of #to_f

Cheers,

Joshua Timberman
