[chef] [ANN] chef-workflow 0.2.0

[Erik Hollensbe < >]

I'm pleased to announce the next major release of Chef-Workflow, 0.2.0.

Chef-Workflow is a toolkit for unifying your infrastructure management with Chef. It aims to provide the tools you need to define your own workflow and testing needs with powerful, sensible defaults, with minimal dogma. The system is built as an "advanced tool for people with advanced needs", giving you what you need to coordinate an operations team around a set of in-house formal practices.

It's split into 2 major components with a unifying toolkit library.

* Chef-Workflow Tasklib is a suite of rake tasks and supporting rake toolkit to do common things you'd need to do with a chef server. The tasks are malleable so you can compose your own method of working within your team, and bring in optional included tasks to enhance your workflow, already integrated with the system.

* Chef-Workflow Testlib is an integration testing system that fully orchestrates a network of chef managed machines and allows you to test interactions between built systems.
