That's our plan. And we also believe that using an industry-proven software,
with formed community and documentation will make it simpler for contributors
and new developers.

That sounds great. I'll try to hack an ansible + vagrant/docker script to give
it a shot.

Thanks! Are you going to use GitHub? If so I can probably bother you there with
issues and maybe PR's :)
All the best,
