Chef 10.14.2 Released!

We reordered our versioning with the release of 10.12.0 to facilitate point releases that just contain bug fixes. Here is your first one.

MVPs

Phil Dibowitz contributed awesome improvements to knife that were released in 10.14.0, such as batching for knife cookbook upload -a.

Nagios cookbook hero Tim Smith helped find a couple of the bugs that we fixed in this release.

We’re grateful you are both a part of the Chef community, and you are the co-MVPs for this release!
