Chef

WARNING

This is a proof of concept - it shows the path for future integration, but all the steps are not complete. What remains:

• You cannot write Attribute or Definition files in Perl.
• At the moment, all your Perl recipes must live in the same cookbook.
• There is very little error handling. (ah, who am I kidding - there is none)
