Yes this one.

Hey Joshua,

Thanks that exactly what I thought. This cookbook is heavily outdated. 
Could we publish the new cookbook in the opscode repository? I think it 
would be problematic to contact the author, the cookbook is dated to 
2010 and it's too old. Though I haven't try to contact the author... I 
mean the author doesn't support the cookbook, so this may just turn into 
a waste of time.
It also concerns all other cookbooks that are forgot by their authors. 
They don't have any life in their repositories. Actually I have also 
created the new graylog2 cookbook which uses elasticsearch.
If both of them were in the opscode repository they would probably get 
more progress.

So is it possible to publish the named cookbooks into the opsocde 
repository?

Regards,
Denis
