Ohai, we prepared a new release for you! The Ohai 0.2.0 MVP is Thom May. Thom checked out Ohai, and immediately wrote a Python Language Plugin.

Look at what the Chef community has cooked up for you – a brand new release! The Chef 0.5.6 release MVP is Sean Cribbs, of Radiant CMS fame. Sean has been a steady presence in the burgeoning Chef community – asking questions, filing bugs, and contributing patches.

Hello! It’s time again for a new release of Chef – this one is chock full of interesting bug fixes, a few new features, and lots of feedback. This release’s MVP is Arjuna Christensen (fujin!) – we went to bed last night with 6 bugs in the 0.5.

Hi everyone! I’m pleased to announce the release of Chef 0.5.2 and Ohai 0.1.4. I’m giving this releases MVP award to Bryan McLellan, who added support for Cron, Routes, and FreeBSD in the last two weeks. Way to go, sir.

For those of you who are taking a look at Chef, we wanted to give you a run down of some of the things that make it awesome.

Cloud Cafe #31 – Opscode Introduces Chef [0:02] [music] John Willis: [0:18] All right, hey, this is John Willis at johnmwillis.

I had the pleasure of talking with John M Willis, of the most excellent IT Management and Cloud Blog and Cloud Cafe Podcast fame.  John watches the IT Management and Cloud space like a hawk – pretty much no story misses his eye.  We talk about: What is Chef? How would people use it?

I’m pleased to announce the release of Chef, a systems integration framework that brings the benefits of configuration management to your entire infrastructure. With Chef, you can: Manage your servers by writing code, not by running commands.  Integrate tightly with your applications, databases, LDAP directories, and more.
