[chef] Re: Re: LWRP for N00bs

While we're on the topic, what are some pros/cons to writing resources in the "libraries" directory vs "true" LWRP style in the "resources" and "providers" directories?  I see that a lot of Sean's contributions go the "libraries" route, but there's a pretty diverse mix community-wide (with most seeming to be "true" LWRP style).

The conversion logic is here:

TL;DR: "web_serverwebserver" is gonna get converted to
"WebServerwebserver", so the class you're looking for is
Chef::Resource::WebServerwebserver
