Hi. I'll be pushing an update out this afternoon for updated debian support
plus 12.10 ubuntu support. I'll be sure to update the README. Thanks for
pointing it out!

I suspect this is the same cookbook as the one on the community website.
It would be great if the maintainer would post the Github repo source
link on the Community website.

I just converted our rubygems deploy of chef to the omnibus using the
heavywater cookbook. It does a great job of deploying and making sure the
version of omnibus is the right one.

Highly recommended.

Caveat emptor - haven't used it myself, but have heard good things.

Also - Omnibus packages for platforms have repos at yum.opscode.com and
apt.opscode.com - might be worth looking in to.

I see that the wiki has information about upgrading from 0.9 to

on the topic is... less than encouraging.

Has anyone developed a workable upgrade process for minor[sic]
revisions? Care to share? Have we re-embraced bash + SSH in a
for-loop?

I'll second this, full disclosure of course: I'm biased because I work with
Chris.

We (Heavy Water) have used it in multiple upgrade scenarios to great success
