[chef] Re: Re: Re: RE: Re: Re: Logs of client run in management console chef-webui ?

[Christopher Brown < >]

This is something we are actively working on.  I'll try to get a clear
concise version of the roadmap together to post to the community.
We've got a lot going on around "dry-run", reporting from both the
client convergence and server access perspectives, and in more
interesting job execution.

On reporting, some of what folks are asking for can be accomplished
directly from report handlers in the client, but you'd still like the
server to somehow participate in all this, either as a landing area
for the reported data or at least as an index to it.  We'll have more
to say about that shortly.

Cheers,
Chris
