I've got a new bittorrent cookbook that I've put together with LWRPs
and recipes to make it relatively simple to move large files around to
large numbers of hosts. It leverages Chef to connect peers with the
seeders and the torrents to download files. It's currently
Ubuntu-only, but I plan on adding RHEL/CentOS support soon (patches
welcome). I wrote it up on my blog and it's on GitHub and the
Community site as well. Any feedback is appreciated.
