If you guys can meet after work hours (and would find it useful), i can
give you some suggestions and anecdotes about my experiences with puppet
and chef. i've deployed chef on ~10 nodes in AWS, and architected a 100
node roll-out of puppet on dedicated infrastructure. in my current job
i'm part of a team deploying puppet to thousands of dedicated servers
across multiple datacenters.

I would be interested in this. I need to evaluate Chef, Puppet, and/or similar
tools to see if it would be worth integrating into existing infrastructure.

Hello SeaPIGs and Django-Seattle
I'm pretty unhappy with my server configuration strategy, which is currently
just manually executing a lot commands. The deploy meeting inspired me to
finally take the leap and learn Chef.
Does anyone else want to learn it with me? I've always found that it helps to
have others who are also learning. (A buddy and I learned Django together-- if
we hadn't teamed up, the admin configuration probably would've defeated us.)
I'm going to spend a workday during the next week to learn Chef. If anyone
wants to join, let me know, and I can provide a meeting space for us. A group
of 3-4 would probably be ideal. I'll be attempting to use Chef to create
Django-ready servers from the amazon ec2 ubuntu base server.
Best,
Peter
