Foremost I wanted to get the project it&#8217;s own space on all the various locations like GitHub, Forge, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Inevitably this means getting a logo, it&#8217;s been a bit of a slog but after working through loads of feedback on Twitter and offers for assistance from various companies I decided to go to a private designer called <a href=\"https:\/\/dribbble.com\/isaacdurazo\">Isaac Durazo<\/a> and the outcome can be seen below:<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/devco.net\/images\/choria-horizontal-blue.png\">&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/devco.net\/images\/choria-horizontal-green.png\"><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>The process of getting the logo was quite interesting and I am really pleased with the outcome, I&#8217;ll blog about that separately.<\/p>\n<p>Other than the logo the project now has it&#8217;s own GitHub organisation at <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/choria-io\">https:\/\/github.com\/choria-io<\/a> and I have moved all the forge modules to it&#8217;s own space as well <a href=\"https:\/\/forge.puppet.com\/choria\">https:\/\/forge.puppet.com\/choria<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There are various other places the logo show up like in the Slack notifications and so forth.<\/p>\n<p>On the project front there&#8217;s a few improvements:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There is now a registration plugin that records a bunch of <a href=\"http:\/\/choria.io\/docs\/configuration\/statistics\/\">internal stats on disk<\/a>, the aim is for them to be read by Collectd and Sensu<\/li>\n<li>A new Auditing plugin that emits JSON structured data<\/li>\n<li>Several new Data Stores for Playbooks &#8211; files, environment.<\/li>\n<li>Bug fixes on Windows<\/li>\n<li>All the modules, plugins etc have moved to the Choria Forge and GitHub<\/li>\n<li>Quite extensive documentation site updates including branding with the logo and logo colors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There is now very few things left to do to get 1.0.0 out but I guess another release or two will be done before then.<\/p>\n<p>So from now to update to coming versions you need to use the <a href=\"https:\/\/forge.puppet.com\/choria\/mcollective_choria\">choria\/mcollective_choria<\/a> module which will pull in all it&#8217;s dependencies from the Choria project rather than my own Forge.<\/p>\n<p>Still no progress on moving the actual MCollective project forward but I&#8217;ve discussed a way to deal with forking the various projects in a way that seems to work for what I want to achieve.  In reality I&#8217;ll only have time to do that in a couple of months so hopefully something positive will happen in the mean time.<\/p>\n<p>Head over to <a href=\"http:\/\/choria.io\/\">Choria.io<\/a> to take a look.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently at Config Management Camp I&#8217;ve had many discussions about Orchestration, Playbooks and Choria, I thought it&#8217;s time for another update on it&#8217;s status.
