[chef] Re: community.opscode.com/cookbooks - is OutDated, when using Berkshelf. Why?

[Seth Vargo < >]

The community site includes "published" cookbooks. The code on github is the bleeding edge.

Additionally, there is a slight delay between when a new cookbook is pushed to the community site and when the Berkshelf API server indexes it.

I've moved to using chef-repo with a Berksfile on new chef-server.

Define dependencies, as read in Berks off site:

#site "http://api.berkshelf.com"

# From opscode

...

cookbook 'nut'

...

cookbook 'openvpn'

...

But I was very surprised when I found that the cookbooks downloaded from community.opscode.com/cookbooks outdated instead of github.

What do you think about this? 

And what to do?

Specify the use only github https urls in Berksfile with all cookbook's as below ?

cookbook 'nut', git: 'https://github.com/divergentlogic/cookbooks-nut'

...

cookbook 'openvpn', git: 'https://github.com/xhost-cookbooks/openvpn.git'

...

etc
