I always wonder why people want to re-implement something, just for
the sake of the implementation language.

Perhaps the person that wrote it (presumably) has large amount of Python
knowledge?

I understand where you're coming from though.. I thought it was quite
flattering for Chef though, to be used as a reference point.

That is an interesting project. If the issue is a preference to
writing recipes in Python instead of Ruby, it is possible to write a
library to allow that. Adam did a proof of concept for Perl:

GitHub - adamhjk/chef-perl: Write Chef recipes in Perl!

Now that IS interesting.. we've got a fair amount of perl skills in our
department.. much more than ruby.

Will investigate!

I totally want that to get better - I can already see the places we
would extend Chef's internals to make this integration really
complete, and I think some Devel::Declare sauce could be applied to
make the DSL pretty damn slick.

Hit me up if you want some help/reference.
