Shawn, I have been looking at the fortress build process and install scripts. In the past, we have built ansible roles (https://github.com/PennState/fortress-in-a-box), but they still rely on the ant tasks. One of the ideas I had was to build out the ansible roles to install and configure fortress (openldap, tomcat, core, commander, etc...) without relying on ant. Then use these roles to build docker images. This would give users the option of running ansible directly, running ansible with vagrant, or running already built docker images. The downside of this approach is that while docker can be run on windows, ansible can not run on windows as a control machine. Is running on windows a goal of the project? (could still be done, would just be more manual process) Thoughts on this approach?
Thanks, ~Chris Pike
