Great! A few things need to happen:

0. The fenics-virtual repo needs to be moved into an official FEniCS
repository. I suggest putting it in a subdirectory 'virtual' in the FEniCS
developer tools repository.

1. Putting the script on the web page happens via a cronjob (fetching from
the bitbucket repository). I can set this up when the script is in place.

2. For the web page, I would prefer a very short instruction (like we have
for fenics-install.sh) that can be added to the download page, perhaps with
an additional link to more information. Make a pull request for the
fenics-web repository.

Thanks!
