[chef] RE: Status on Knife plugins?

[Matt Ray < >]

The knife plugins are finally getting more Opscode Engineering love, we now have a team focused on them. We're building a new continuous integration pipeline for testing the Opscode-supported knife plugins and working on a common base plugin (knife-cloud) that should reduce the amount of variation between standard plugin components. knife-rackspace added Windows support and Windows support will be included in knife-cloud and the CI testing.

Thanks,

Subject: [chef] Status on Knife plugins?

 

Hi,

As I've written previously, we've had quite a few issues bootstrapping Windows in the cloud, most caused by bugs/missing features in the knife plugins.

There seems to be quite a few tickets where a fix is provided:

What are the plans for new releases of the knife plugins?
