Ohai Chefs,

We have several more Opscode cookbook releases for you today. Most of these are bugs or minor feature additions. Of note, the ark cookbook’s LWRP now works in Chef 11. The git repository is also set up with new “Test Kitchen 1.0 alpha” support. We’re also making good progress on improvements for the runit cookbook, and will soon have a new release with COOK-2353 resolved.
