Hi all,

I was remiss in not posting to the mailing list after the last  
developer's meeting regarding Chef Software, Inc.'s platform support  
RFC. It is here:

> <https://github.com/chef-boneyard/chef-rfc/pull/21>
>
> There is a fair amount of confusion about the specific operating system platform…s, platform versions, etc. that Chef Software, Inc. supports for its products. This RFC will clarify this by calling out the individual operating systems and their releases as explicitly supported or not.

We have already received over a hundred comments and it is in an  
almost-finished state. But since I was so late with this, let's have  
one more pass and try to merge it at the _next_ dev meeting (i.e. not  
today), which I assume we will hold in person at the community summit  
on October 2.

- Julian
