Chatroom Highlights:





 This is very cool [http://curah.microsoft.com/67912/powershell-summit-na-2014](http://curah.microsoft.com/67912/powershell-summit-na-2014)**  I"™m slightly considering doing this: [http://ozar.me/2014/05/one-pound-sql-server-dell-venue-pro-8/](http://ozar.me/2014/05/one-pound-sql-server-dell-venue-pro-8/)

I have an announcement.  I rode the mechanical bull successfully Wed night! pics and videos coming soon

You broke the SQLite provider. Whine Whine.

Ask jim about Lucky Strike 🙂

Can you go into more detail on PSGET ?

Exceept it doesn’t handle dependencies (yet)

And you can’t upload modules (yet)

can we host our internal Module repo?

QUESTION: Your most complicated module doesn’t have dependencies on other modules?

How would we browse those modules today or do you need to be “invited”?

DO YOU THINK we should enforce the use of the technet “technology tree” categories? I.e.: pick ONE category?

Also, do you know there’s a preference variable to turn off autoloading, or make it autoload only when you explicitly specify Module\Verb-Noun

What was that Philadelphia code camp statement?
