There's no specific reason -- I'm just trying to find the quickest way to setup deployment infrastructure. OpsWorks looked like it would be easy to set up, and integrated with all the other AWS services.
However, now that I'm aware of the chef version issue... not so much.
So, I'm setting up a Hosted Chef account now.
I'm sure I'll have more questions, though. Thanks for you help!
On May 20th AWS mentioned they were upgrading chef to version 11, but there was no mention of when that would be accomplished.

I don't know your requirements, but I do have to ask; is there a specific reason you're looking at using OpsWorks instead of running Hosted Chef or an Open Source Chef server? Until AWS upgrades OpsWorks to Chef 11, I think it's a bit crippled, personally.

Noah,
Thanks for mentioning that!
Is there any way to know which cookbooks work with OpsWorks and which
don't? These are the ones I think I need:
> cookbook 'nginx'
> cookbook 'rabbitmq'
> cookbook 'mongodb'
> cookbook 'mercurial'
> cookbook 'newrelic'
> cookbook 'newrelic_monitoring'
> cookbook 'django'
> cookbook 'application'
> cookbook 'application_nginx'
> cookbook 'application_python'
> cookbook 'uwsgi'
(Along with other cookbooks they require, I guess.)
Thanks again.
