[chef] Re: Re: lwrp based on the omnibus configuration DSL ?

[Bryan Berry < >]

@Peter,

nice work on chef-archive, I hope i can show you my new LWRP some time
soon. It is tentatively called "thunderball" as in a tar ball coming
from the clouds.

@Greg, I am embarrassed to say i hadn't looked at artifact-cookbook
very closely. It has some awesome features but doesn't quite handle
what I am looking for. I hate to build yet another LWRP for a similar
task but I am pretty committed to using to using a DSL similar to one
in omnibus

here is a an example of what i have in mind
