So I just pulled down master and was playing around with chef solo. When  
processing a template it’s trying to connect to the server at  
localhost:4000.  
Is it too early to be playing around with this?

Ticket has been opened and fixed (twice, doh), pending merge ([http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-330](http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-330)  
)

I believe we're hoping to start full public testing of master once our  
last round of internally tested bugs are closed, however, feel free to  
test as normal and open tickets for any bugs you encounter if there  
are any 🙂

Appears that Chef::Config[:solo] isn't getting set. Should this be getting  
set in Chef::Application::Solo or do we need to put it in the config file  
now?
