Chatroom Highlights:
[22:43:30] FWIW, my 2c: I think a "moderated" feed (where you just trust the core chocolatey team to review packages, instead of trusting all the authors) is the answer to "trust" -- the idea being the core team says that yes, this module just downloads and installs "the real product" that it claims to.
## Have you heard rumors that chocolatey may move away from nuget?
## Are you involved in the chocolatey community at all?
## Are you (un)happy/neutral that Chocolatey has moved their lib/install folders to C:\ProgramData
## Are you (un)happy/neutral about the idea of expecting users to be "elevated" when running cinst?
## Does that mean boxstarter only works on machines that have access to the public internet?
