[chef] Re: RE: recipe_url with windows

["Moser, Kevin" < >]

This is actually a different issue.  This is if you use ³\² instead of ³/³
in path.  That is due to this line:
https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/lib/chef/application/solo.rb#L1
94

The workaround for that one is to switch file separator so c:/chef instead
of c:\chef

Once you get past that one, then they are going to hit the issue below.
