What is the current status of PowerShell DSC?
I don't know about DSC as a whole but key modules certainly are completely abandoned so the usefulness of DSC, whether dead or not, is pretty limited because you need those resources and modules in order to do anything with DSC.

Windows, Ruby and Long Paths
Over the past few months, we've had a long-standing issue related to Puppet on Windows resurface (puppetlabs/Puppet.Dsc#144). More specifically, Puppet modules with long file paths could not be installed on Windows due to a limitation in the Windows operating system. In short, if a file path surpasses 260 characters, it's open season: the path has to be referred to in a different format, first-party apps like Notepad or File Explorer start to behave erratically, and there's no guarantee what works and what doesn't anymore.
